I have installed a Bryant that had an ECM motor, it drew i think 200 Watts
on the blower.  Set the delta-T for 140 output and make the ducts larger.
The thermostat must be DC it may have to drive a relay which wakes the
furnace and the inverter.  The furnace then must run normally with normal
shut down.  The thermostat transformer will keep the inverter on.
