UTV Air Conditioning & Heating Kits
RedDOT Powersports engineers purpose built UTV air conditioning, heating, ventilation, and accessory power systems for side-by-sides used on trails, job sites, farms, ranches, and other demanding off-road environments.
Formerly known as Offroad Arctic Climate Systems, RedDOT Powersports brings the product line directly under the RedDOT name, backed by more than 60 years of experience engineering mobile HVAC systems for vehicles operating in demanding conditions.
UTV Climate Control Backed by More Than 60 Years of Mobile HVAC Engineering
RedDOT Powersports isn't a generic automotive A/C system adapted for off-road use. Its products are developed specifically around the packaging limitations, power requirements, vibration, heat, dust, water, and operating conditions encountered by UTVs and side-by-sides.
The Powersports line builds on Red Dot Corporation's decades of experience designing, manufacturing, and testing mobile heating and air conditioning systems for construction, agriculture, transportation, defense, recreation, and other heavy-duty vehicle applications.
Red Dot's powersports engineering capabilities include dedicated research and validation testing, along with intellectual property developed specifically for UTVs, side-by-sides, golf carts, and other low-speed vehicles.

Tested for Real UTV Operating Conditions
Red Dot’s Arlington, Texas engineering operation is home to the world’s first independent climatic wind tunnel dedicated to powersports, UTV, low-speed vehicle, and electric vehicle research, development, and testing. That testing capability allows Red Dot engineers to evaluate heating and cooling performance under controlled environmental conditions rather than relying solely on theoretical specifications. The result is climate-control technology developed and tested around the realities of off-road vehicle use.

Why Did Offroad Arctic Change Its Name to RedDOT Powersports?
Offroad Arctic Climate Systems is now RedDOT Powersports. The name has changed, but the products, engineering, and commitment to purpose built UTV climate control remain the same. RedDOT Powersports continues to offer the aftermarket UTV air conditioning systems, heater kits, Hurricane Roof Fan, and accessory power solutions previously sold under the Offroad Arctic name.
The rebrand brings these products together under the RedDOT Powersports identity while building on the same technology developed specifically for side-by-side and off-road vehicles. Existing Offroad Arctic products are still supported, and compatibility with models such as the Polaris Ranger, Polaris RZR, Bobcat UTVs, and other supported side-by-sides hasn’t changed.
If you previously purchased, researched, or searched for Offroad Arctic UTV air conditioners or heaters, you’re in the right place. RedDOT Powersports is the new name for Offroad Arctic Climate Systems.
Who makes RedDOT Powersports UTV air conditioners and heaters?
RedDOT Powersports products are designed and manufactured by Red Dot Corporation, a 100% employee-owned mobile HVAC company headquartered in Puyallup, Washington.
Founded in 1965, Red Dot develops heating and cooling systems for vehicles and equipment operating across industries including construction, agriculture, transportation, defense, recreation, and other demanding mobile applications.
Red Dot also maintains dedicated powersports research and testing capabilities for UTVs, side-by-sides, low-speed vehicles, and related platforms.
What makes RedDOT Powersports different from other UTV air conditioning systems?
RedDOT Powersports developed its aftermarket UTV A/C system specifically around the requirements of UTVs and side-by-sides, rather than adapting a climate system originally designed for a different vehicle type.
The system combines an under-dash climate unit with RedDOT’s vehicle-specific engineering and patented Drive System technology to address one of the major challenges involved in adding air conditioning to a UTV: limited factory electrical capacity.
Red Dot also validates powersports HVAC performance through dedicated climatic testing, helping engineers evaluate cooling capability under controlled high-temperature and solar-load conditions.
How does the RedDOT Powersports UTV Drive System work?
Many UTVs rely on magneto-based charging systems that provide limited electrical output for high-demand accessories.
The RedDOT Powersports Drive System uses patented belt-driven technology to create an additional mechanical power source. Depending on the application, the system can drive an A/C compressor or an alternator.
When configured with an alternator, the added electrical capacity can support equipment such as light bars, audio systems, inverters, electric compressors, and other accessories that may exceed the capacity of the factory charging system.
Which UTVs are compatible with RedDOT Powersports A/C and heater kits?
RedDOT Powersports currently supports select Polaris Ranger, Polaris RZR, Polaris Pro XD, Bobcat UV34, and Bobcat UV34XL applications, with additional vehicle compatibility continuing to expand.
Compatibility isn’t universal across every year or configuration. The correct system depends on factors including the UTV model, model year, engine, cab configuration, and RedDOT Powersports product being installed.
Always use the current RedDOT Powersports vehicle compatibility guide or contact an authorized dealer before ordering.
Are RedDOT Powersports products tested for extreme heat and off-road conditions?
Yes. Red Dot maintains dedicated engineering and validation capabilities for powersports climate-control systems, including a climatic wind tunnel at its Arlington, Texas facility dedicated to powersports, UTV, low speed vehicle, and electric vehicle development.
The RedDOT Powersports UTV A/C system has been evaluated under controlled conditions including 104°F temperatures with full solar load.
These capabilities allow Red Dot engineers to measure cooling performance and evaluate systems under environmental conditions representative of demanding real-world operation.
Does RedDOT Powersports offer both UTV air conditioning and heating?
Yes. RedDOT Powersports offers products for hot-weather cooling, cold-weather heating, ventilation, and accessory power.
The lineup includes:
- UTV A/C Kits
- UTV Heater Kits
- Hurricane Roof Fan
- UTV Drive System
- UTV Alternator Power Kit
Together, these products allow compatible side-by-sides to be configured for a wider range of temperatures, operating environments, work applications, and recreational use.
