They make direct drive blower motors that draw less than 1 amp at 230 volts,
but I've never seen a 115 volt motor on a furnace that low.

The last 2, 100000 btu furnaces Ive had pull apx 375 watts on a direct
drive blower. that will cost anyone at .125kwh a standard US rate apx
35$ a month run 24x7. That is a bit of a waste. No furnace blower ive
seen can pull only 1.2a under load. I think you are measuring it wrong.
