Infra-Red Reflective Glass Panels
for Clear Fire Viewing
The outer surfaces of the ceramic glass panels have
an infrared-reflective coating which keeps the inner
surfaces warm. This design, along with a pre-heated
‘airwash,’ makes clear fire viewing possible at most fir-
ing levels.

Andirons Help Protect the Glass
Your stove has andirons to keep logs away from the
glass panels. The andirons are essential to maintain
clear fire viewing, and should be left permanently in
place. Since the andirons may slightly hinder refueling
through the front doors, most stove owners will prefer
the convenience of top loading through the griddle. Do
not place fuel between the andirons and the doors.

Burn Only High-Quality Wood
The Defiant is designed to burn natural wood only; do
not burn fuels other than that for which it was designed.
You’ll enjoy the best results when burning wood that
has been adequately air-dried. The wood should be
22-24” (559-610 mm) in length. Avoid burning “green”
wood that has not been properly seasoned. Do not
burn construction materials; they often contain
chemicals and metals that can damage the inside
surfaces of the stove and pollute the air. Do not burn
ocean driftwood; when it burns, the salt it contains will
attack the cast iron.
The best hardwood fuels include oak, maple, beech,
ash, and hickory that has been split, stacked, and air-
dried outside under cover for at least one year.
If hardwood is not available, you can burn softwoods
that include tamarack, yellow pine, white pine, East-
ern red cedar, fir, and redwood. These should also be
properly dried.
Store wood under cover to keep it dry. The longer it is
stored, the better heating and fire-viewing performance
you will enjoy. Even for short-term storage, be sure to
keep wood a safe distance from the heater and keep
it out of the areas around the heater used for refueling
and ash removal.

A Surface Thermometer is a Valuable
Guide to Operation
An optional surface thermometer tells you when to ad-
just the air control, and when to refuel. (Fig. 32)
For example, when the thermometer registers at least
450°F. (230°C) after start-up you know the stove is
hot enough and it may be time to close the damper.
Note that the stove will warm up much sooner than the
chimney, though; a warm chimney is the key to easy,
just the air control, and when to refuel. (Fig. 32)

Note that the stove will warm up much sooner than the

effective stove operation. Please review the draft man-
agement information on Page 26 to see how the size,
type, and location of your chimney will affect your stove
operation. When thermometer readings drop below
350°F. (175°C) it’s time to adjust the air control for a
higher burn rate or to reload the stove. A temperature
reading over 750°F. (385°C) is a sign to cut back on the
air supply to slow the burn rate.

Use the Air Control Settings
that Work Best for You
No single air control setting will fit every situation. Each
installation will differ depending on the quality of the
fuel, the amount of heat desired, and how long you wish
the fire to burn; outdoor air temperature and pressure
also affect draft.
The control setting also depends on your particular
installation’s “draft,” or the force that moves air from the
stove up through the chimney. Draft is affected by such
things as the length, type, and location of the chimney,
local geography, nearby obstructions, and other factors.
See Page 26 for details on how the installation affects
performance.
Too much draft may cause excessive temperatures in
the Defiant, and could even damage the stove. On the
other hand, too little draft can cause backpuffing into
the room and/or the “plugging” of the chimney.
How do you know if your draft is excessively high or
low? Symptoms of too much draft include an uncontrol-
lable burn or a glowing-red stove part. Signs of weak
draft are smoke leaking into the room through the stove
or chimney connector joints or low heat output.
In some newer homes that are well-insulated and
weather-tight, poor draft may result from an insufficient
air supply in the house. In such instances, an open
installation will differ depending on the quality of the
fuel, the amount of heat desired, and how long you wish
the fire to burn; outdoor air temperature and pressure
also affect draft.
