【USAGE TIPS FOR MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS】-For optimal results, mount the bulb horizontally inside a reflector dome and place it 8-12 inches (20-30cm) from your pet's basking area. Do not place over glass or plastic, as these block vital UVB rays. To guarantee consistent UV output, we recommend replacing the bulb every 8 months, even if it still emits visible light, as UV decay is invisible to the human eye.
