Message: <blockquote data-quote="TheJuicyFruit" data-source="post: 31657" data-attributes="member: 3275">Hello!If you've seen my intro thread, I'm in the pre-steps of getting my first T, and I'm worried that my house will be too cold in the winter, and too hot in the summer. Winter night temps get to be 52-58, depending on the month, and the time, while summer day temps can be 92-102 (All inside my house). For the winter, a space heater is not really an option, because even on low, they seem to blow a fuse (Not to mention the electricity bill).For the cold temps, I've done some looking into insulation, and have found that some people for aquariums use Styrofoam on the sides to insulate it, has anyone tried this with t's?As for summer, I'm able to use fans, and air circulation to get a few degrees cooler, but I think I'll need something a bit more substantial for the heat waves. I'd like to get a year-round plan set up before I start bringin' them in.Any input would be greatly appreciated, thanks for your time.</blockquote>
