Cham Enclosure

Hey everyone I've been reading up on chameleons(veilds and panthers) lately and don't really understand how you are supposed to be able to create the ideal environment. I keep my room pretty warm(with base boards) around 75 but because of that the humidity is low. With an all screen cage it would be virtually impossible to keep any amount of humidity. Even with 3 daily mistings, plants and a dripper I doubt it could even get to 50 for very long after mistings. Also, if I were to have an all screen enclosure with heat lamps for heat the only area that would be warm would be the basking spot and immediate area around it. I was just wondering what people do to get around these problems. Especially in canada where our furnaces are running for most of the year. What about peg board? Would that give enough air flow? I think it would help hold in heat and humidity. Anyway just bored and curious to what all you cham owners do.
