Riding or plowing in a Polaris RZR XP 1000 when it's below freezing gets old fast, even with a full cab. This in-dash heater uses the heat your engine is already making, sends it through a heater core mounted in the dash, and blows it into the cab and up onto the windshield to defrost it. At 20,000 BTU with adjustable fan speeds, it keeps the cab comfortable for as long as the engine runs. It fits the XP 1000 and XP 4 1000.

A Frost-Free Windshield
An ice scraper is never around when you need it. The defrost vents and hoses direct warm air across the windshield and clear it in minutes, so you're not spending the first 20 minutes of the morning scraping.
A Warm Cab for the Whole Ride
Because it runs on engine coolant, the cab stays warm for as long as the engine is running, whether you're plowing the driveway or on a long winter trail ride. The radiator hoses are rated from -40°F to 285°F, so they'll hold up on the coldest mornings and the hottest engine temps.
Hassle-Free Set-Up
All the parts needed for the install are included. The heater carries an IP67 rating against water and dust, and the built-in shutoff valve lets you stop coolant flow to the heater when you don't need it.
In-Dash vs. Under-Dash
This heater mounts in the dash, puts out 20,000 BTU and is the stronger of the two cab heaters for the XP 1000. If you'd rather have a smaller unit that sits under the dash between the seats, the 14,600 BTU cab heater is the alternative. For full cabs in real winter weather, the extra output of the in-dash unit warms the cab and clears the glass faster.
Faster Heat: Quick-Start Flow Valve
Choose "Yes, please!" for the Quick-Start Flow Valve to cut warm-up time in half. At low engine temperatures it sends all engine coolant straight to the heater core, then opens automatically once the engine warms up so coolant also reaches the radiator.
Heat at Idle: Idle Flow Pump
Add the Idle Flow Pump to get hot air in under 30 seconds. It actively pumps coolant at idle, so the heater stays hot even when you're crawling along, plowing slowly or sitting still. Combine the flow valve and the pump for maximum heat as quickly as possible at low speed or idle.

Who It's For and What Pairs Well
This heater is for winter riders, hunters and anyone plowing with their RZR. A heater only works as well as the cab holds heat, so close it in with a windshield from RZR XP 1000 windshields, a roof from RZR XP 1000 roof tops and doors from RZR XP 1000 doors. 4-seat owners: RZR XP 4 1000 interior accessories.
