Is there anything I can do to increase my furnace's life span?

Absolutely yes. It all comes down to the proper maintaining of your filter replacements. Ideally, you would replace your filters every month. If you notice dander, dirt, rocks, or pet hair in your air filter, you may want to replace them sooner than that. The air filters are the key to elongating your furnace's life.

What do I do if I smell gas?

Leave the house immediately. Evacuate all you family and pets and go outside. Using a cellphone or a neighbor's landline, then call the fire department or your local gas utility provider. On the subject of gas it helps to have a carbon monoxide detector. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas and very toxic to humans. If at any point you develop flu-like symptoms rapidly and without explanation, be cautious and examine your furnace.
