Yes get one if you're doing this for the cold end exclusively. Your heating bill will be more than the cost of a new heat mat for cold end! 
Seriously though, 20-21 is ok. Obviously a degree or two would be prefered but since you have a spare stat for your electric heater you may as well spend £12 for another mat. |

If im correct 70F is about 21c.
I wouldnt say thats a huge problem. My cold end drops to 18 in the night, 20-22 in the day.
It has been suggested that another heat mat is used in the cold end, set to maybe 22.
