Installing a Heater Kit on a 95XT Skid Steer
#1
Why Add a Heater Kit
Owners of the Case 95XT skid steer often look for ways to improve comfort when working in cold weather. Installing a heater kit is a popular upgrade, especially for those who spend long hours operating the machine during winter.

Finding the Right Kit
One challenge is tracking down the correct heater kit for the 95XT. Some operators suggest checking with local dealers first, as they may still have original or compatible kits in stock. Others recommend looking at aftermarket options, which can sometimes be more affordable but may require minor modifications.

Installation Considerations
Installing a heater kit usually involves tapping into the engine’s coolant system to supply warm fluid to a small cab heater core. It’s important to check the skid steer’s existing components to confirm the correct hose routing and ensure there’s enough space for the heater unit. Proper sealing and vent placement make a big difference in how well the heater warms the cab.

Tips From Other Operators
Some owners share practical advice: inspect the machine’s cab for pre-drilled mounting points, use high-quality hose clamps to prevent leaks, and flush the coolant system if it hasn’t been serviced recently. Operators also note that adding insulation to the cab can help retain heat and improve the heater’s efficiency.

Conclusion
Adding a heater kit to a Case 95XT is a worthwhile investment for those working in cold climates. With the right kit, careful installation, and a few extra touches like cab insulation, operators can stay comfortable and productive all season long.
