Frequently asked questions

What does the air quality index (AQI) mean?

The European AQI rates air cleanliness on a 0–100+ scale from the main pollutants (PM2.5, PM10, NO₂, O₃, etc.). Lower is better.

What is the difference between PM2.5 and PM10?

PM2.5 is fine dust under 2.5 µm; PM10 is under 10 µm. Finer particles go deeper into the lungs.

When should I be careful?

At moderate or worse AQI, shorten outdoor exercise, keep asthma meds handy, and air rooms less during busy traffic hours.
