Except furnaces functionally shut off when not actively making heat. A fridge potentially is only off for power outages or a cleaning

Don't fridges do the same thing? Once it gets the interior to the set temperature, the compressor turns off until the sensors say it needs more cold.

30 years is a long life for a furnace. This thing was 45-50 and still running fine. The last maintenance note on the sheet on the inside was in the 80s lol.
