Temp question

We live in FL, during the days here our air is off because no one is home except the snake. The fan stays on though. Outside temp is in the 90s during the day and at night our air stays on 75. My snow doesn't even go near her heating pad now or in her hide, instead she sleeps in her tree branch and hides under her substrate(recycled paper) Would it be okay for me to take the UTH from her during the summer?

I took her hide out and replaced it with a bigger water bowl, since she just uses it now to climb on.
 
I have roughly the same temps. I keep a thermostat on the snakes, set at 80-84 or so. They only run late at night. I really doubt you would have problems if your low is only 75, as long as it doesn't get to 65 on nights when she is digesting. How warm does your house get during the day? Over 90 would be bad.
 
She normaly hides under the substrate, she's not really a hider though, she's either on her tree branch, the water edge or half way under the substrate, with her head poking out. Even when the hide was in there, when I switched her substrate she didn't use it.

I'm keeping the UTH in, I just put half of the water bowl on it, that way, she has more space that's cooler.
