Becoming an Authorized Algae Shield® Dealer

Type of Business

The business must be a pool related enterprise with a commercial retail storefront.

Local Saturation

Earth Science Laboratories, Inc. does not grant exclusive territories to Algae Shield® Dealers. Ultimately, the decision to add a new dealership lies with the regional manager.

Authorized Algae Shield® Dealers wishing to sell Algae Shield® products on the Internet must use the same web domain name as on the Authorized Algae Shield® Dealer's storefront.

Minimum Purchase

To become an Authorized Algae Shield® Dealer, an initial purchase of a Dealer Start-Up Package is required. Due to price changes and new product availability, the configuration of the Dealer Start-Up Packages changes from year to year. Contact our administrative offices at 800-257-9283 for the current Start-Up Packages and pricing.
