Its so cold !

during a Normal winter with temps between 20 to 40 I fill my boilers water once every few days yesterday between my wife and I we filled it 4 times ,we've never done that many times before.
 
Hot water baseboard heating is the most economical and most Even heat run by a boiler.
Radiators are out dated I grew up with them hissing and leeking,it was my job to fill the boiler as a kid !
my mom use to have trays filled with water on top of the radiators for humidity.

"It's OK, he saw it on the television." -100 degrees in New Hampshire. I can't imagine keeping a greenhouse going in this temperature. What a propane bill you would have???

My present house built in 2005 has hot water heat. It is a custom built home with wainscoting, Crown molding, skylights, and a hot water heating system. Hot water is no longer widely used because of the expense. Today's systems use copper tubing which is very costly. I would choose this over any other heating system due to the extreme comfort it offers. A forced air furnace distributes dust all over your home which is alleviated by hot water heat.
 
Modern systems use a water line regulator which does the filling automatically. You should be able to convert your system easily....well maybe if you are handy, and do it yourself. I would stay away from calling a plumber.
