I for one don't trust all of the numbers being reported related to the pollution problem in Thailand this year, thus the reason for me even posting this topic.
The AQI numbers on the site linked to earlier are independent of the government.
You can buy a Mi PM2.5 meter for about 600 baht.
There are also free standing air purifiers.

These are on sale in the obvious places in Pattaya.
There's no way I'd
buy one in the UK, but nevertheless, I have one, as it was left behind by a tenant. On the rare occasions when I need it, such as when the neighbours attempted to burn their pampas grass plant, it was very effective at reducing PM2.5 readings in the room.
If I ever move to Thailand, I'll get one immediately. As a tourist, I merely fit filters to the aircon, if staying in a location for a few weeks.
Anyone who genuinely wants clean air has easy options to do something about it.
