The BDT250 has a durable, coated, compact aluminum base in a low-profile design. Fins provide largesurface area to make the unit run cooler while putting out the same amount of heat as conventional de-icers. Channels within the base promote water flow as the water is heated. Cooler running, coating, and flowing water all combine to reduce mineral buildup. Multiple thermostats allow efficient control while providing over-temperature protection. The BDT250 is safe to use in plastic bird baths and comes with a 10-foot cord.

Winner! Winner! Chicken Dinner! This is a winner! It automatically turns on when the water temperature approaches freezing, then turns off once it is several degrees above freezing, again.

Very Satisfied so Far This bird bath heater is simple to hook up and well made. I live in the northeast part of the country, and so far this winter it has done the job of keeping the water above freezing. It also circulates the water gently. I believe it is worth the money. It comes with a 3 year warranty. You must keep it clean!!
Excellent heater The heater keeps the water warm enough so that it doesn’t freeze, and the water is also not too warm. When there is no water the unit shuts off. Sturdy construction and the low profile works well in my shallow bird bath.
