Vermont Castings Defiant 1975-CAT-C Installation & Operating Manual page 2

Congratulations on your choice of a Vermont Castings Defiant
a commitment to make the hearth a place of warmth, beauty and comfort in your home. At Vermont Castings, we share
that joy and appreciation for the hearth. We assure you that your cast-iron Vermont Castings stove has been made with the
utmost care and will provide you with many years of service.
As you become acquainted with your new stove, you will find that its appearance is matched by its functionality, due to cast
iron's unique ability to absorb and radiate heat.
Also, Vermont Castings products are among the cleanest-burning wood stoves available today. However, clean burning
depends on both the manufacturer and the operator. Please read this manual carefully to understand how to properly operate
and maintain your stove.
At Vermont Castings, we are equally committed to your satisfaction as a customer. That is why we maintain an exclusive
network of the finest dealers in the industry. Our dealers are chosen for their expertise and dedication to customer service.
They are factory-trained and knowledgeable about every Vermont Castings product. Feel free to contact your Authorized
Vermont Castings Dealer anytime you have a particular question about your stove or its performance.
This manual contains valuable instructions on the installation and operation of your Vermont Castings Defiant
1975-CAT-C. It also contains useful information on maintenance. Please read the manual thoroughly and keep it as a reference.
Please read this entire manual before you install and use your new stove. Failure to follow instructions may result in property
damage, bodily injury, or even death.
Note: Cast iron is an artisan crafted material, which is made the same way today as nearly 2000 years ago. Due to
the intrinsic primitive nature of the casting process, part to part variation is normal and adds to the character of a
hand built cast iron appliance.
