Radiant heat panel question

I emailed pro-products and asked them what size RHP I needed for the 4'Wx2'Dx18"H cage I'm building and was told I needed a 12"x18" panel. Does that sound about right to you guys(and girls)?

Re: Radiant heat panel question

Bob from ProHeat knows better than any of us what works, he likely has a formula of some sort for these things. But yes, it sounds right. I have a 12x24 panel for my cage. More important than the size is the wattage. Mine is 88 watts because the temp drop in the room can get down to 60.
