Question on heating a tall enclosure

Have just ordered a new enclosure for my growing Russian rat snake. It's a 48"x24"x48" AP cage. It will have a RHP and the basking shelf but now I'm wondering if I should ask to have the belly heat tape added to the order. My guy spends a lot of time climbing and hanging out, literally, on his perches but he also sleeps on the floor of his cage. The only heat source in his current cage is an RHP but the cage is only 24" high.



Do you think a 48" tall cage for a temperate species needs more than just an RHP?
