Cool air from inside the living area is drawn into the furnace and flows past the outside of the hot chamber. The chamber makes this air hot and this hot air flows out of the furnace and back into the living area. When enough air in the living area has been heated, the thermostat turns the furnace off automatically. - Page 5 (part of combination valve in furnace), which then opens. Now the pilot lights the gas and your furnace is on. When the living area is warm enough, the wall thermostat switches off, the main gas valve closes and your furnace turns off.
