Guides & Downloads

More than just a heater, the Vermont Castings Defiant Wood Stove is an heirloom-quality focal point—crafted to warm your home, delight your senses, and honor four decades of American tradition. Inspired by the original parlor stove on display at the Smithsonian, today’s Defiant still “defies the wintery blast” with a remarkable blend of artistry and performance. Its bold cast iron body, available in elegant enamel finishes, commands attention with graceful curves and timeless detailing no other stove can match.

Every feature is engineered for maximum comfort and minimal effort. The top-loading system lets you add wood without opening the front door, keeping smoke contained and reloads mess-free. An exclusive swing-out ash pan allows you to remove ashes safely—even when the stove is hot. Thermostatically controlled combustion adjusts airflow automatically, delivering longer, more consistent heat without the need for constant tending.

At its core, an advanced ceramic catalyst boosts efficiency and lowers emissions to just 1.3 g/hr, making the Defiant EPA 2020 certified and eligible for the 30% federal wood stove tax credit. With a massive 3.2 cu. ft. firebox, the Defiant accepts logs up to 24" and provides up to 56,000 BTU/hr, heating spaces up to 2,800 sq. ft. effortlessly.

Built for longevity, with robust construction, smart venting options, and timeless design, the Defiant isn’t just a stove—it’s the heart of your home. Step into your living room on a snowy evening and feel not just warmth, but history—this is comfort you can see, feel, and share.
