You do realize a solid fuel burner isn't allowed by code in any garage in the US right?

Is the space insulated?

The roof is insulated ,its a flat rubber roof w/ a slight pitch & w/ 3 inch foam under the rubber.
& the space is a actual warehouse rather than a regular type garage .

Ok but are vehicles pulled in? Is there gasoline or other flammable vapors present?

No vehicles , No Flammable vapors

That is a whole lot of cubic feet to heat. Especially if the walls and floor are uninsulated I don't know that any stove is up to the task

My guess would be that space would take twice what the 160 puts out to do the job...unless its well insulated and the indoor temp only needs to be "above 32*F".
Sounds like a better job for a small/medium sized boiler honestly...just hang a water-to-air-HX or two around the place...
