Was wondering if the furnace in the attic (or other locations) are required to be GFI protected with the new 2020 NEC code changes.

Here's the appliance list from the 2020:
422.5(A) General.
Appliances identified in 422.5(A)(1) through (A)(7) rated 150 volts or less to ground and 60 amperes or less, single- or 3-phase, shall be provided with Class A GFCI protection for personnel. Multiple Class A GFCI protective devices shall be permitted but shall not be required.
(1) Automotive vacuum machines
(2) Drinking water coolers and bottle fill stations
(3) Cord-and-plug-connected high-pressure spray washing machines
(4)Tire inflation machines
(5)Vending machines
(6)Sump pumps
(7)Dishwashers
Informational Note: Section 210.8 specifies requirements for GFCI protection for the branch-circuit outlet where the covered location warrants such protection.
