 heating pole barn

I am building a morton pole barn: 36'W x 56'L x 12'H, and may insulate in the future. Where is the best place to buy a LP radiant tube heater, about 30'-40' long? Is $750 a respectable price? How have others insulated the walls? I thought about Bat insulation, or putting up netting and blowing fiberglass in the wall cavity. (Deep walls would take a lot of insulation.$$$$) I can finish the ceiling myself with steel panels, vapor barrier, and blown-in fiberglass.

 heating pole barn

Nosteiner4me,

I plan on heating the building only when I am working on equipment, or when the kids are playing basketball. I thought about heating a small portion where my diesel JD3520 will rest. Although, it was 15F yesterday, and she started after a few tough tries. I may look at putting an inline heater on the tractor that I could plug in. So in summary, I think the LP radiant tube heater is my best bet. I may add a basic wood stove some day.
