The real-time air quality in Bucharest is 49 (MODERATE) AQI now. This was last updated .

Generally, the air quality at Bucharest starts deteriorating in late October. The winters are the worst-hit season in terms of air pollution.
You should wear a good N95 mask when you go outdoor in Bucharest until the AQI is improving upto moderate range.
Office going people should avoid personal vehicles and use public transportations or carpooling.
(i) The primary causes of outdoor air pollution are solid, liquid particles called aerosols & gase from vehicles emissions, construction activities, factories, burning stubble & fossil fuels and wildfire, etc.

Indoor air pollution in Bucharest is as dangerous as outdoor pollution, because the air pollutants come inside the houses or buildings through doors, windows and ventilation.
In Bucharest , you must use an air purifier or fresh air machine at home or office indoor and close all the doors, windows and ventilations when the outdoor air quality index (aqi) in Bucharest is very high. Proper ventilation is highly recommended only when outdoor air quality is improving and moderate AQI range.
