We do use an electric heater and the lp furnace (found out last winter just the electric couldnt keep up when it got below 10 degrees or so)
Ive thought of ducting the exhaust outside of the building but when i previously asked about that everyone said no it wouldnt work. (something with keeping intake and exhaust gas pressure equal and the blower for the exhaust gasses not strong enough to add additional ducting)
The pole barn isnt air tight of course (has gable vents and vented soffit and the interior is all open (no loft/attic or anything just open from the ground to the peak)
Ive read on a couple of forums about people building permanent additions and relocating the furnace by just extending and relocating electrical wires/lp lines/ and the ducts from the furnace. None of these go into more details than that.
The water heater is ran solely on electric and the fridge has been replaced with an electric dorm fridge. The furnace is the only thing that runs LP.
