You obviously know what a pole barn is and have one that you need to heat, so we won\u2019t dive into the history of its applications and standard features. We\u2019re wanting to heat a large, uninsulated barn with high ceilings.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how we approach that mission, on any scale and for any application, whether you have a suburban workshop, a hobby farm, or a <a href=\"https:\/\/pepupinc.com\/agriculture-fuel-delivery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">large agricultural business<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"porto-content-box featured-boxes wpb_content_element \"><div class=\"featured-box featured-box-light \"><div class=\"box-content\" style=\"\">[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Jump ahead to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"#regional-heating-days\">Calculate your region&#8217;s heating degree days<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"#barn-use-considerations\">Determine how warm your barn needs to be<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"#radiant-or-forced-air-heater\">Decide between radiant and forced air heat, and determine mounting location<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"#barn-heater-size-calculator\">CALCULATOR TOOL: Calculate how many BTUs you need<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"#radiant-ceiling-mount-heater\">Sample Option A: Radiant Tube Heater (Ceiling Mount)<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"#radiant-wall-mount-heater\">Sample Option B: Radiant Concentrated Area Heater (Wall Mount)<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"#safe-barn-heater-installation\">Install your heater safely<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"#call-on-pepup\">Call on PepUp with questions<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<\/div><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;regional-heating-days&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Step 1: Calculate your area\u2019s heating needs<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/energyexplained\/units-and-calculators\/degree-days.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a map for determining the average number of Heating Degree Days (HDDs) in your area<\/a>. Energy Star has a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.energystar.gov\/buildings\/tools-and-resources\/degree-days-calculator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">calculator to determine HDDs from data collected at your nearest weather station<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Since we serve residents on Delmarva, and in our Wilmington, Glen Burnie, and Annapolis service areas, we used a couple of these tools to calculate the HDDs for our area.<\/p>\n<p>In all of 2023, the Salisbury-Wicomico County weather station recorded 3830.5 degrees required to bring the outdoor temperature up to the standard base of 65 degrees. That means if you were going to heat your barn to 65 degrees (which most people wouldn\u2019t, unless it\u2019s used for growing plants or young poultry, in which case your heating needs would be much different), you would need to run your heater for nearly 190 days out of the year, primarily between October and May.<\/p>\n<p>In our area, <strong>the months you\u2019ll probably need to run your pole barn heater around-the-clock to hit that 65 degree mark are November through March.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;barn-use-considerations&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Step 2: Determine what you&#8217;ll keep in your barn<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Those stats aren\u2019t a surprise to anyone who\u2019s made it through a Mid-Atlantic winter. The big take-away is that heating a large, open, uninsulated space is going to take more energy than heating a small shed or an insulated building. To determine how much you\u2019ll be using your barn heater system, you need to ask a few key questions that will help you determine what temperature you don\u2019t want your barn to drop below:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How big is your barn? You\u2019ll need to know not just the footprint, but also the volume of your barn in cubic feet. Calculating how much power you\u2019ll need to heat your barn looks like <a href=\"https:\/\/farmerboyag.com\/blog\/how-to-select-the-right-heater-for-your-barn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this formula from Farmer Boy<\/a>: <em>(cubic feet of space) x (desired temperature change in Fahrenheit) x .133 = BTUs needed per hour<\/em>. That will help you determine minimum BTUs (British Thermal Units) you\u2019ll consider in a pole barn heater or heating system, and it will also help you calculate the cost of fuel to run it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Are you keeping livestock in your barn?<\/strong> They\u2019ll have different temperature requirements depending on their species, size, cold-hardiness, workload, and health factors like age and illness. Dairy cows have different heating needs than blanketed horses, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepoultrysite.com\/articles\/managing-heat-and-minimum-ventilation-systems-in-the-broiler-house\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">poultry heating and ventilation needs<\/a> are far too detailed to go into in this post.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Do you need to keep water from freezing?<\/strong> If so, are you heating uninsulated pipes that are run against outside walls, or are your pipes insulated or run through a concrete floor? Do you have open stock tanks of water, and are they near a north-facing wall? Consider each water source or supply line within the context of its own microclimate, and adjust your heating plan to keep the coldest pipe location from getting anywhere near freezing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Are you using your barn for storage, or as a workshop?<\/strong> If so, what are you storing, and does it need to be kept from freezing? Is anything in your barn flammable, and where will it be stored in relation to the primary heat source(s)?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once you understand how much you\u2019ll be using your barn heater, you\u2019ll be able to calculate the cost of heating your pole barn by factoring in the power and efficiency of each propane heater you\u2019re considering.<\/p>\n<p>Why propane? It\u2019s efficient, burns clean, and is safe and affordable to boot.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;radiant-or-forced-air-heater&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Step 3: Decide which style of heater you\u2019ll be using<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]First, you need to understand that we\u2019re not considering portable propane heaters for the purpose of this guide. We\u2019re only addressing permanently mounted propane heating systems. Where those are concerned, there are two main types of heat distribution: radiant and convection\/forced-air heaters.<\/p>\n<p>Among livestock raisers and <a href=\"https:\/\/americansteelinc.com\/blog\/how-to-heat-a-barn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pole barn manufacturers<\/a>, radiant heaters are the most popular for the wide open spaces within a pole barn. Instead of heating the air, these heaters transfer heat to nearby surfaces. This allows for more even and direct heating without hot spots, and can transfer heat to a concrete floor for even greater efficiency, once the floor is heated to a certain temperature.<\/p>\n<p>Most any heater that is mounted up high \u2013 best practice for barns with animals and combustible materials like hay \u2013 needs to have reflective panels behind it to direct the heat downward. Heat naturally wants to rise, so reflecting back down to the floor will help limit wasting heating fuel.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, adding insulation or a radiant barrier to your barn roof and walls will make it easier and less expensive to heat to your minimum temperature. That may be cost prohibitive, but the benefits in cost savings over the years could prove to be worthwhile. It\u2019s something to consider as you look for ways to keep your pole barn warmer in the winter.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;barn-heater-size-calculator&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Step 4: Calculate BTU needs for your barn before you shop<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221;]Finally, once you\u2019ve established the size of your barn and these other basic factors, you can start shopping for a pole barn heater that works best for you.<\/p>\n<p>Assuming we have an uninsulated, metal pole barn that is 30 x 40 x 10, for a total of 13,600 cubic feet, heated to 50 degrees on a 35 degree day (no doors left open), how many BTUs do we need, at a minimum? Using the formula above and our make-believe pole barn and temperature, we can calculate:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>13,600 (cubic feet of our barn) x 15 (degrees of temperature increase from outside temps) x .133 (propane efficiency factor) = 27,132 BTUH<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Conclusion: The heater for this imaginary pole barn should be at least a 28,000 BTU heater.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Use the calculator tool below to enter your barn dimensions, your lowest historical regional temperature, and the temperature you want your barn to maintain. The result will be the minimum BTUs you&#8217;ll need, in total, from the heaters in your barn.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"porto-ultimate-content-box-container \"><div

It\u2019s all about location. Creating a heating system for your pole barn that utilizes smaller propane heaters, placed in strategic locations throughout your barn, could be a more efficient \u2013 and comfortable \u2013 solution. It all comes down to your needs. You\u2019ll also notice that Option A requires electrical, and Option B doesn\u2019t. That\u2019s an important consideration if you need your barn heat to work, even if the power is out.<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t an all-inclusive list of costs associated with pole barn heater installation. The purchase price and operating costs are important, but you also need to get price estimates for installation, propane gas line connection, and a new or upgraded propane tank to supply enough fuel for the heaters you choose. Or, talk to PepUp about <a href=\"https:\/\/pepupinc.com\/propane-prices-payment-plans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">setting up Automatic Delivery<\/a> based on those numbers to keep your barn heated, without interruption.

For pole barn heating, you\u2019ll also need to consider special circumstances that will or may apply in your barn.<\/p>\n<h3>Here\u2019s a safety checklist you should consider when comparing heater options, and discuss with your installation provider and propane company technician:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Proper ventilation<\/strong> \u2013 Usually not an issue in pole barns without tight building envelopes, but ask the question of your installer.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Safety shut-offs, tip-over protection, and CO detectors<\/strong> \u2013 Make sure your heating system has these features, where applicable, and that you know how to shut off the system and turn off the propane quickly.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Installation clearance<\/strong> \u2013 Every heater has its own minimum clearance specifications from ceilings, walls, the floor, and from combustible materials. Pay attention to potential \u201chot spots\u201d in your chosen mounting location, for your model of heater.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Animal interference<\/strong> \u2013 If you have animals, you know they\u2019ll get into anything that they can reach. Make sure you secure and enclose gas lines, electrical connections, control panels, and of course the heating unit itself, so animals can\u2019t cause potentially devastating damage to your heating system.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;call-on-pepup&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>Remember: PepUp can help!<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; css_params=&#8221;&#8221;]We hope all this information helps you decide how you\u2019ll approach selecting and installing pole barn heaters for your workshop, farm, or <a href=\"https:\/\/pepupinc.com\/propane-delivery-commercial\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">commercial business<\/a>.
