Snow Blowers

Stock UTVs handle snow clearing with plows, but plows just push snow aside, creating windrows that build up, requiring multiple passes, and struggling with heavy, wet, or deep accumulation. UTV-mounted snow blowers solve this by actually throwing snow 20-40+ feet away from cleared areas, eliminating windrow buildup and handling depths that overwhelm plows. Side by Side Source carries a selection of professional-grade snow blowers designed specifically for UTV mounting, from compact 48-inch units for residential driveways and walkways to heavy-duty 54+ inch commercial models with powerful engines that clear massive snowfalls quickly and efficiently.

Buyer's Guide for UTV Snow Blowers: Helping You Shop!

Understanding Side-by-Side Snow Blower Sizing and Capacity

Snow blower width and power determine what conditions they can handle effectively. 48-inch blowers represent the smaller end of UTV-mounted units, adequate for residential driveways, sidewalks, and light commercial use. They're lighter (easier on UTV front ends), more maneuverable in tight spaces, and sufficient for typical snowfalls (4-12 inches). With 13-15 HP engines, they handle most conditions that residential users encounter. They struggle with extremely heavy, wet snow or depths exceeding 18-24 inches, where they bog down or require multiple slow passes.

54-inch blowers are the workhorse size for serious snow clearing. They’re large enough to clear wide areas quickly but not so large that they're unwieldy. With 15-18 HP engines, they power through heavy snow that would stall smaller units. They're ideal for commercial properties, farms, or homes with large driveways and lots. 60+ inch blowers enter heavy commercial territory, including municipal use, large parking lots, or properties with massive clearing requirements. They require substantial UTV power (50+ HP minimum) and add significant weight, affecting handling.

Differences Between Single- and Double-Stage UTV Blowers

Most UTVs run two-stage blowers, which are built with an auger that scoops the snow to an impeller, after which it is then shot out. This separation allows handling higher volumes and throwing snow much further than single-stage designs. The auger pulls snow in regardless of forward speed, while the impeller provides the throwing power. This design handles deep, heavy, or packed snow effectively.

Single-stage blowers use an auger that collects and throws the snow in one action. They’re light and simple, but can’t throw quite as far and don’t fare as well in deeper snow. A single-stage can do well enough in residential settings, but anything beyond that level of snow and land really needs a two-stage.

Impeller design affects throwing distance and power requirements. Larger diameter impellers with more blades throw further but require more power. Adjustable skid shoes let you set the clearing height. They’re set low for pavement, raised for gravel, where you don't want to pick up rocks and throw them through your windshield.

Mounting Systems and UTV Snow Blower Compatibility

Snow blowers mount to UTVs via front-mount systems similar to plow mounts. Quick-attach mounting plates let you install and remove blowers relatively quickly (15-30 minutes typically) for UTVs used for multiple purposes throughout the year. Permanent mounting makes sense for dedicated snow-clearing machines but limits other use. Weight distribution is a key element here. Heavy blowers (300-500+ pounds) significantly load front ends, affecting steering and potentially overloading front suspension. Verify your UTV's front capacity accommodates your blower's weight.

Hydraulic drive systems power the auger and impeller, requiring your UTV have hydraulic capability (either factory power steering hydraulics that can be tapped, or aftermarket hydraulic systems installed specifically for implements). Flow requirements vary—check your UTV's hydraulic flow (gallons per minute) matches blower requirements. Insufficient flow causes blowers to operate sluggishly or not at all. PTO (power take-off) or electric drive systems are less common on UTV blowers, but exist. They have their own power requirements and compatibility issues.

Three-point hitch compatibility on some blowers allows mounting to UTVs with implement-ready three-point systems. This is more common on high-end work UTVs designed for implement use. Most recreational UTVs use front-mount plate systems.

Side-by-Side Snow Blower FAQs

How big of a machine do I need?

That depends on the snow blower you’ve got your eye on. For a smaller or mid-size machine, you may be well-suited for a 48”-54” blower, where full-size and high-horsepower UTVs can handle a 60” or larger blower.

Can I use my snow blower on gravel driveways without throwing rocks everywhere?

Yes, with proper setup and operation. Adjust skid shoes to raise the auger 1-2 inches above ground level. This prevents the auger from contacting gravel. You'll leave a thin snow layer, but it won't grab rocks. Operate at moderate speed. Racing through gravel driveways picks up material regardless of skid shoe setting.

Is side-by-side blower maintenance a drag?

As long as you stay ahead of oil changes, inspections, and keep those fittings greased, UTV snow blowers aren’t that high-maintenance.
