Precise Digital Temperature Control for Reptile Heating and Cooling Devices
Zoo Med's ReptiTemp Digital Thermostat is a full-featured temperature controller designed to maintain precise, consistent habitat conditions for reptiles. With a temperature control range of 50°F to 122°F, it covers the full spectrum of thermal requirements for tropical, temperate, and desert reptile species - giving keepers accurate, automated control over their enclosure environment.
The ReptiTemp Digital Thermostat supports up to 600 watts of heating devices and 150 watts of cooling devices, making it a versatile dual-mode controller. In heat mode, it automatically activates heating devices when the temperature drops below the set point. In cool mode, it activates cooling devices when the temperature rises above the set point - providing complete thermal management in a single unit.
A remote temperature sensor with a 6-foot cable allows precise temperature monitoring directly at the animal's level within the enclosure, ensuring the thermostat responds to actual habitat conditions rather than ambient room temperature. Easy programming makes setup straightforward for keepers of all experience levels.

Material and Design Breakdown
The ReptiTemp Digital Thermostat features a digital control interface with easy programming for setting the desired temperature range. The remote temperature sensor connects via a 6-foot cable, allowing it to be positioned precisely within the enclosure at the animal's level for accurate habitat temperature readings. The black housing provides a clean, unobtrusive aesthetic that suits any reptile room or enclosure setup. Dual-mode operation allows the same unit to control both heating and cooling devices depending on the keeper's needs.
Setup and Compatibility Guidance
Connect compatible heating devices (up to 600 watts combined) or cooling devices (up to 150 watts combined) to the thermostat. Place the remote sensor inside the enclosure at the animal's level and program the desired temperature set point. The thermostat will automatically activate connected devices to maintain the set temperature. Compatible with a wide range of reptile heating and cooling equipment within the specified wattage limits.
