If a furnace has a power factor not equal to 1 then there is a motor involved. If it was pure resistive element the Power Factor would be 1. That being said the motor can operate at .2 PF, but this is unusual and not very efficient. If this is the case I would expect that you have a bad motor control circuit and there may be a blown capacitor.
