Heat in winter in north east

[ZIGMASTER]

I'm buying my first jeep. Its a 4 door wrangler sport S 2021 with all the bells and whistles that come with it. I have the one touch for the top to roll back. Living in Connecticut where in the winter it gets cold so i am wondering how does the heater work in the winter. Does it keep the cab warm with the kind of roof I'm having. And since the summers can get stifling hot how does the a/c work with this kind of roof. Thanks and BEEP BEEP

Both work great. The heat is extremely powerful (moreso than other vehicles) and the A/C is about what you expect from a vehicle of this year.

Thanks for your reply. Was a little worried about that.

You can roast a turkey with the heat at full crank.

Gobble gobble...

Yes, everything works phenomenally well. Also with the remote start that starts the steering wheel heat and seat heater, you will find that it gets hot very quickly in the JLU! Which, being on Long Island, you get to appreciate as well.....Same for the AC although I tend to keep the top open when it's hot

Bob, Wranglers are legendary for producing ample heat, the JL being no exception.

And, as others have mentioned, the A/C is overengineered too.

It almost seems as each was designed, to paraphrase you, to "keep the cab comfortable enough with the 'no kind of roof' you might have," let alone a soft, hard or power one.

lol, well Thanks Giving is right around the corner. Thanks

Thanks I appreciate your input

Heat will melt the skin off the bone...I'm in PA and have had a soft top for over 15 years. Never cold.

The heat is extremely powerful (more so than other vehicles) and the A/C is about what you expect from a vehicle of this year.

The heat output in my 2.5L YJ impressed me. I was never cold as I drove that soft top through a cold, wet and miserable PA winter. I might have needed to run the fan one speed higher than what a hardtop would require, but that was of no concern.

As for A/C: my wife purchased a new Honda in 2019, our first vehicle to have the new R-1234yf refrigerant. That too impressed me; the air is certainly colder than what the R-134a is capable of in my other vehicle. I was expecting the inverse, having years of experience with "improved" formulations that rarely are so.

With the foregoing in mind, I didn't give the heating or cooling qualities of the JLU a second thought.

As said the heat is incredible on Wranglers. The only complaint about them I’ve ever heard through the years is that they get too hot.

HVAC on these things is good. Better than just about every other passenger car I've been in.

CT resident with the premium soft top, here. Heater is great. You won’t have any issue.
