P1000m5 Cooling fan in summer heater in winter?

[batter-up]

Has anyone ran a duct into the engine compartment with a reversible fan to provide engine cooling in the summer and reverse it for heating in the winter? Or if this is a bad idea your imout would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks @ohanacreek. Works pretty well. Used 7" for cooling and 2 3"computer fans for heating. Here's some pics.

It looks like the temp controller is 110v. Did you have to use a transformer to up the voltage?

Planning on putting a fan in my p1000-5 would it be suggested that I would need to put in second battery? The fan you used says 80 Watts.
