Default How Long Without Heat

I am moving stuff around today and putting some stuff into storage so will have to leave my royal without heat for a short while. How long will he be OK without heat (His heat mat on a stat). Will he be OK for a few hours? Thanks

In this weather royals would be fine without heat for several hours and even over night (don't forget you cool them down as part of breeding so its not as if a healthy royal can't withstand temp drops). I assume the snake is healthy?

I discovered that my airing cupboard was a great place to put a rub for a while
