API Bird Bath De-Icer with Aluminum Base

Keep winter water open with this bird bath de-icer so birds can drink and preen every day. Count on the API aluminum base to warm gently, preventing ice without warping plastic, ceramic, or glass baths. Use just 250 watts and let the built-in thermostat cycle on near freezing, then rest as the water warms.

Key Features

• Aluminum base: Spread heat evenly to avoid hot spots and protect your bath.
• Low-profile, finned design: Tuck it at the bottom and keep the surface cooler to the touch.
• Automatic thermostat: Activate near freezing and shut off about 10 to 20 degrees warmer.
• Energy-smart 250W: Save power by heating only when needed.
• 9.5 ft cord: Reach nearby outlets without extension clutter.
