you need a heatloss done on it . this will tell the proper size furnace. try doing a heat loss your self go to www.heatload.com it will give you a could ideal

oldguy2

You really need to include more info. I would not put a furnace into your house with less than 80,000 btu out put if you are talking about a 80% effic furnace that converts to a 100.000 btu furnace minimum for this area.
