Heater Size Question

Hello - I have a question regarding heater size. I have decided to purchase a Hydor in-line external heater for my 36gal corner tank. My problem is I REALLY like the cold. In the winter time it is safe to say the room where the tank is (and I sleep) rarely goes past 50 degrees. Except for the weekends my kid is down - then I tolerate 70ish. In the summer my air is running and I try to keep it down to 68 --- The question is do I buy a 200 watt rated for 26-53 gals or do I buy the 300 watt rated for 53-80 gals? I'm worried that the 200 watt may get too much of a workout - Thanks and I very much appreciate your time helping me and my son set up this tank
