[QUOTE="skayser2, post: 72006, member: 2179"] Polar Vortex or not....enough is enough already. If this cold trend in Central Minnesota is gonna stay with us, somethings gotta change :) Have tried several heater variation (non-Bobcat) over the years. Mostly just partially shrouding the radiator and door and using 3" & 4" dryer tubing to route warm air off the radiator into the back of the ROP behind the seat. I have the (soft) cab sealed up fairly well. Have tried a small heater core and fan with coolant off the 3/8" fittings at the thermostat housing. Just wasn't enough flow there. The 722D can't hold more than 5 quarts anyway. The factory must tap into the upper and lower radiator hoses with a combination of "wye's to 5/8" hose, valves and/or restrictors to allow for enough flow to their heaters?? Make sense?? Probably have no business having the this little thing out in those temps anyway. In my younger days, wouldn't have been a problem :} I do about 9 square blocks of sidewalks and 12 driveways.
