With spring here, allergy season is in full force.

If you've already been experiencing allergy symptoms, it's just the beginning. Pollen counts will continue to soar through May, so finding some form of relief to get you through the spring would be beneficial.

One good option is an air purifier, which removes allergens and pollutants to improve indoor air quality.

To help alleviate your allergy symptoms this spring (or every season), we've compiled a list of air purifiers that are certified by the Allergy and Asthma Foundation of America.

Here are air purifiers for managing allergies and asthma while inside your home.
