If you are not going to use the home in the winter then you should consider electric heat. Electric is the cheapest to install and the most expensive to operate. However if you are not heating in the winter your operating costs will be low.

With electric you can have a thermostat in every room and save money by only heating the rooms you are using. It's safe, clean, quiet and takes up very little room.

Drain the water for the winter and shut the heat off.

To be fair I should mention I'm an electrician.
