One of the most specific requirements in reptile keeping is that the appropriate temperatures and temperature gradients are available to the animals.
Habistat is one of Europe's leading manufacturers of heating equipment and thermostats for reptiles and other animals and is now available to Australian Herpers.
Maintaining correct temperatures is sometimes difficult to accomplish within the confines of captive conditions. The Habistat range of thermostats and environmental controllers offer something to suit every application.
All Habistat products are manufactured "in house" with stringent quality control procedures. Habistat are so confident with these products that they offer guarantees far beyond our legal obligations.
All Habistat products are wired to Australian specifications.
All Habistat products are pre wired and do not need to be installed by an electrician.
