Smart Solar Bedrock IntelliSOLAR Birdbath with Remote

Yes, for optimal performance, the solar panel requires direct sunlight to power the pump. While it may function in partial shade, the water flow will be significantly reduced or intermittent.

The remote allows you to conveniently turn the fountain feature on and off without needing to access the unit directly. It is particularly useful if you want to conserve battery power or silence the water feature when you are not using your outdoor space.

Constructed from Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC) and resin, this birdbath has a solid, durable build. However, because it is a pedestal-style design, we recommend placing it on a level, stable surface to ensure it remains secure during windy conditions.

This model is not frost-resistant. To prevent damage from freezing temperatures and potential cracking of the basin, we recommend draining the water and storing the unit in a protected area during the winter months.

To keep the water fresh and the pump running smoothly, it is best to rinse the basin and clear any debris every few weeks. Because it does not have a drain plug, you will need to siphon or bail out the water to clean it thoroughly.
