Question 1

"The birdbath features a built-in thermostat to prevent waters from freezing." Only turns on when cold?

Accepted Answer

No- it is on when plugged in. Our weather Warmed up and I just had to unplug ours or all the water evaporates. Honestly, I think this is the best birdbath I can imagine! I don’t mind at all! It is just super!

Question 2

I have one of these that is about 20 years old.  The bracket that attaches to the bird bath is worn out.  Where can I order a replacement bracket?

Accepted Answer

I would contact Allied Precision who makes these bird baths and ask to purchase just the bracket. Not sure where else you could get it. Don't see them for sale as a separate unit.

Question 3

I received the birdbath today but  didn't receive the mounting bracket.  What Is the process to get the bracket sent?

Accepted Answer

Contact Amazon customer service or call the seller of the item.  The seller should be on the box of the order you sent.

Question 4

Do you leave on 24/7 in the winter or turn off at night and plug back in the morning?

Accepted Answer

You are supposed to leave it on...I was hesitant at first too.  With the thermostat it will only heat if the temperature of the water drops below a certain point.  Mine is plugged in 24/7 for at least 5 1/2 months a year.  Otherwise the water will freeze.  
Use warm water to fill basin when changing water/cleaning or adding water so it doesn't immediately have to heat.
You will lose more water to evaporation during colder weather when it is plugged in.  CAUTION:  Do not let bowl go dry or even very low!

Enjoy!  Sometimes on the coldest days some of the sparrows will have a bath fest!  I've seen as many as 20 birds either around or in the basin.  Fun to watch!
