P1000 cost of adding heat and a/c

[Red21]

I have a new P 1000-5 due to arrive in October. My wife wants me to add heat and a/c. Has anyone does this? What is the cost? I know that it will require a lot of work, but is this something I can do myself?

Im not aware of anyone who makes an A/C system thats an add on for any utv. There was a company at the AIMexpo a couple years ago that made the factory-installed stuff for Polaris and Cub Cadet that were talking about kits. But i never heard anymore out of them.

Theres really no place to mount a pulley to run a compressor on the Pioneer.

Heaters are no problem, there are a couple kits out there for the Pioneer, including the oem Honda kit.

Generator and window unit on the back should handle A/C just fine.

Im a HVAC tech, and every time i see this question about a/c…oh the power and space it would take to be effective and i can only imagine how Fuced up and clogged the evap will get on trail

The best quality answer for this and its harsh….buy a jeep while you still can!

Ha, somewhere, somehow, someone has a Pioneer running down the trail with a homemade clear plastic soft cab and a window unit bolted into a piece of plywood across the back of their cage.

This was fairly easy to install in my 1000-5: Honda Pioneer 1000 Inferno Cab Heater - Side By Side Stuff
I also agree that A/C is just not practical in a Side by Side.

My 2017 1000-5 LE makes enough heat in the cab that I can't imagine needing a heater. As for A/C, the flip up windshield works well.

Or a camper roof top A/C with generator in bed.

I have to agree especially with a window and soft side doors, now i only had it out in the low 20’s so maybe below 0 it would be nice.

I did the inferno cab heater as well. Your from the same place as I am. If you want to come over and look at it let me know. As cold as it gets here you will need to install insulation to plug up gaps if your going to ride in the dead of winter..

Where in SD do you live? I'm in sioux Falls.

Looks like it cost about $26k, she will love her new Defender Limited

Or $31k if you need seats for more than 3.

Just as well get a Jeep or Bronco at that point.

Thanks for all of the reply's. I think we will scratch the a/c idea. I can get a heater, with window defrosters, for just under $400.00. I will need a horn to make it street legal. Any suggestions?
