Building new garage and need some ideas for heat. Garage is going to be 36x48, it will have insulated garage doors and walls and ceiling will be well insulated. I would prefer it to be wood heat but any ideas would be appreciated. thanks

I've always been spooked off the idea of putting a wood stove in my garage. All those gas cans in there seem like an accident waiting to happen.

I have a separate garage that could store that stuffI've always been spooked off the idea of putting a wood stove in my garage. All those gas cans in there seem like an accident waiting to happen.
What kind of insulation did you put under floor and around footingsI have in-floor heat in my garage/shop. It's nice but when it' time to crank up the temp it is very slow to respond as in about 1° per hour. I just leave it set around 52° all winter.
Oh, any my boiler is fired with natural gas, not wood.
I had my heart set on infloor heat from the start but as I thought about it and ran some numbers the thought of spending that money and having something go bad during install or after is gut wrenching.
Nice garage,how much wood do use through out a eight hour day to keep it up to temp. Do you have any problems with it getting to hot.I have a cumberland gap stove in my shop/barn/garage/man cave, which is built similar to what you are planning with respect to insulation. Mine is a bit smaller at 24x42 but my stove doesn't struggle at all to heat the space into the upper 70s in single digit conditions. I keep my gas cans in a shed 100+feet away.
