how much generator does one need to run the furnace and blower motor? I know my gas fireplace, with fan, would be easier to run, but if SHTF I would like to warm more than one room.
Aren't all furnaces gas? Well beside wood ones
NO. Some use heating oil . Some interestingly enough utilize steam / hot water heat .

For something that could start an electrical fire you wouldn't know about to till some neighbor tried pulling your unconscious body out. Yeah i'd say so
Then again that neighborhood, wouldn't be the first time they tried slipping you a roofie, IF you know what i Mean!
On a serious note. I had an electrician set ours up. The only thing i'm sure of when it comes to electricity is............... DO NOT STICK METAL OBJECTS IN THE OUTLETS, EVER!
I could have been more clear. I guess I was asking aren't all forced air furnaces gas that aren't obviously not gas. I know that sounds stupid. In our neck of the woods we mostly have gas, then probably boilers, then pellet stoves/wood burning, then coal, then oil is my guess. Scott should bet in here soon to key me know what's up.
All kinds of furnaces. Natural gas, propane, oil, waste oil, electric, wood burning.
