The furnace will draw down normal battery/s in one night if it runs a lot. Which brings us to batteries. If the dealer stuck in two group 24 12vdc batteries, you don't have enough capacity. If you want to off grid it using furnace, then best to have four six volt Trojans wired in series and parallel for 400 plus amp hours of capacity...which you do not want to draw down to 200 amp hrs remaining. The more amp hrs of capacity, the better.
