My boiler serves as a whole home system

My area gets entirely freezing in the winter. The snow comes down in feet rather than inches. It isn’t unofficial to have sub zero temperatures. I entirely do not like the snow as well as all the upkeep that it takes. I used to use a snowblower as well as shovel anything it couldn’t reach.
