There you go!
Thanks for replying..
That should solve your problem and hopefully folks here jump off the generator is too small to run your furnace band wagon..
I think some folks are thinking a home furnace works like a RV furnace since a RV furnace starts the fan blower motor BEFORE ignition..
For folks that don't seem to understand, home furnaces do not have the same startup sequence as a RV furnace.
RV furnaces because the draft inducer fan and the main fan are connected to the same motor shaft the main fan must also run before the burner lights.
On home furnaces the fan motor is the LAST item to start, the draft inducer (completely separate 1/20 HP motor) starts first, then the control board starts ignition of the burner, once flame has been proven and only after the flame is proven then the fan is started.
