Question Concerning My New Green House Setup

So I just got my new two tiered greenhouse. My setup consists of an ultrasonic running 24/7 to provide moisture and FAE. Ambient temperature right now is a constant 74 degrees. I'm a little worried though that when winter comes temps will get too low. I'd move the whole setup upstairs, but unfortunately, my girlfriend says it must stay hidden in the basement or moved to the attic, where temps will also drop dramatically in the winter. So my question is:
Is there a reliable way to keep temps up in my greenhouse? I could go the old TiT tek, but that sorta defeats the purpose of a green house. Right?
Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!!!

You'll have to work something out for heat. Maybe you could box it in with 2' x 4's and some of those styrofoam type (4'x8') sheets of insulation. Easier to get a new girlfriend,lol. Bunch of cute girls in the Garden State.
Good Luck.

What about heating the water in the cool mist with a fish tank heater? I've heard it mentioned before, but I'm inclined to question that technique's validity. In related threads TheLightIsOn mentions using an electric blanket to cover the outside of the chamber. That sounds like it would work, but is there a danger of fire? Any thoughts?

Try using a fish tank heater connected to timer and put it in a jag with water and h2o2, it will provide hot moisture, you might want to put a timer on your ultrasonic so it wont be too much humid.

I read a tek a long time ago that a heating pad would work better...his coolmist leaked so he put it in a tub elevated with the heater stuck on the bottom of the coolmist...it kept the heat pad dry and allowed the water to pool which evaporated from the heat pad
