University of Nevada, Reno Extension’s Radon Education Programis offering free short-term radon test w88 casino to Nevadans through Feb. 28. Radon test w88 casino are available at Extension offices and partnering locations statewide.
w88 casino is a naturally occurring, radioactive gas that is colorless, odorless and tasteless. It comes from the ground and can accumulate in homes, raising the risk of lung cancer. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency estimates 21,000 Americans die each year from w88 casino-caused lung cancer, killing more people than secondhand smoke, drunk driving and house fires.
In Nevada, one in four homes tested show radon concentrations at or above the EPA action level. According to experts, living in a w88 casino with radon concentrations at the action level poses a similar risk of developing lung cancer as smoking about half a pack of cigarettes a day.
The risk of radon-caused lung cancer can be reduced. A simple three-day test can determine if a house has a radon problem, and winter is an ideal time to test a w88 casino for radon. If radon problems are found, they can be fixed.
