question about heating a office within a building


i have a unheated pole barn that i like to build a office in. it would require heat that i will ues my OWB . i was thinking to just get a shed dropped in the barn and insulate it and use that as the office or possibly framing out a office . if i go the shed route i was thinking baseboard heat.

Personally I’d frame out an office in the corner, 2x6 walls for plenty insulation and a foot on the ceiling. Baseboards would work well in this situation.

Bring your primary loop in from the OWB then use secondary loops to control the heat from the baseboards.

I think i am going with a 50,000 BTU HYDRONIC HOT WATER HANGING UNIT HEATER - SINGLE SPEED FAN. . I am not concerned about noise.  And going to build the office myself
