In a balanced draft boiler, you actually have both: forced draft (FD) fans supplying air to the furnace, and induced draft (ID) fans removing flue gas. Typically, the FD fans control airflow, while ID Fans control furnace pressure to slightly below atmospheric pressure. In general though, the choice between forced draft and induced draft is based on how "tight" the system is - if you have leaks, it is better to use ID, as FD will cause product loss.
furnace equipped with FD(force draft) and ID(induced draft) fan /blower are called balanced draft system.Fd used to regulate combustion airflow while ID used to regulate furnace pressures type of furnace operate slightly below ATM pressure .
A balanced draft furnace typically uses a draft inducer fan to remove combustion gases from the furnace and vent them safely to the outside. This fan creates the necessary negative pressure in the flue system to ensure proper airflow and exhaust of gases.

A thermostat is commonly used to control a furnace. It measures the temperature in the room and signals the furnace to turn on or off to maintain a set temperature.

A down draft kiln is a furnace where the flue (exit for burned gases) is the located near bottom of the fire box. This type of furnace requires a tall chimney to produce enough draft (or air flow) and typically produces even heat distribution through out the fire box.
A furnace by definition provides heat. There must be something that controls that heat; that is that tells the furnace when to fire up the burners and when to shut down the burners. This function is provided by the furnace control system. Usually the control system itself is controlled by a thermostat which maintains the temperature at a preset level on the thermostat.
