I'm going to install a ceramic bulb for sofia today, my question is do i need to give time for any fumes to dissipate before she can go back in? |

Yes, might sound daft . I tried a reptile radiator & had to with that. |

Is it one of the white conical ones? If so then you should be good to go. I've not had to do that with any of mine . |

Ok. Not to sure with those ones. I wouldn't have thought that you would need to but don't take that as gospel. Does it say you need to on the box/instructions? |

I don't reckon you need to, to be honest.
With ceramics you should run them til the temps balance out anyway iirc so I'd just do that. |
