Basalt Birdbath Fountain Kit by Blue Thumb Free Shipping - Discontinued by Manufacturer
This beauty features a polished bowled top, safe enough for birds to bathe in. Positioned off the ground by a pedestal, similar to a millstone, this fountain creates a beautiful sound as its water plume flows off the top and down on to the pebbles.

Winterizing Basalt Fountains:
If you live in a climate that experiences prolonged freezing conditions then we recommend removing the pump from the basin. Place the pump in a bucket of water if you have an “oil-and-seals” type pump and store it in a place that will not freeze. If you have a mag-drive pump, just clean and store.
Do not drain the basin during the winter months- allow the water to freeze in the basin so that the ground doesn’t cause the basin to rise or “pop up” from expansion of the freezing soil around it.
The Rock Columns are manufactured to withstand freezing conditions and can be left outside during the winter months. There is no need to cover the Rock Columns.
