Yes, it's a gas furnace, and yes it's in a room. So under what
circumstance should the switch be flipped?

You still haven't told us what the switch is connected to. How do you
expect
anyone to be able to tell you when you should flip it?

Ah, hell, go ahead and flip it. You know you want to. Worst case scenario,
you'll have to relight everything. It isn't a starship- there is no
self-destruct circuit.

Me, I'd poke around and see where the wires lead.
