What is Pink Treat?
Pink Treat is an E.P.A. registered algicide formulated for the killing and elimination of slime, pink algae, and water mold.

How do I tell when I have pink algae?
Pink algae grows all over, And turns the water into a cloudy, milky, white swamp. When the algae is on the walls, it is slimy clear to light pink and most of it will brush off. If none will brush off, look out, you probably have metal staining. Use United's Pool Stain Treat for metals.

What benefits can I expect from using it?
Your pink algae will be immediately arrested and after you brush off any residue, your pool will have superior water clarity. Run your filter to clear it up.

Is it expensive to use?
No! A 2 lb. bottle will treat 20,000 gallons, 2 times what most of the competitors can handle, and we do it better!

How effective is Pink Treat?
It is so effective that many pool professionals use it all over the U.S. We guarantee it! Always check your filter with Filter Aid first so you don't waste money.

What does Pink Treat do?
It effectively kills pink algae, water mold and starts to clean up the water of other invisible life forms.

Does Pink Treat have copper or other metals in it?
No! It does not contain any heavy metals which can stain your pool.

Does Pink Treat affect my pool's balance?
No! But if you over chlorinate your pool, you may affect your test kit results by bleaching and/or causing reactions with the test reagents. Simply add more chlorine/bromine neutralizer to correct the problem.

Can Pink Treat Stain?
No! But you must be careful because you use chlorine to activate Pink Treat and the chlorine can cause staining. Be sure to pre-dissolve the chlorine and broadcast the solution on top of the pool, don't pour it down the sides.

Is Pink Treat ok for my type pool?
You can use it in any type pool.

How safe is it for me, my family and pets?
Pink Treat is non-toxic when added to the pool. We treat your pool as though it is drinking water. We have let algae grow on our test pools and then treated with Pink Treat. The president of United and his family swim in that same test pool. All our chemicals are produced with the idea that you and your pets could drink the water safely in an emergency.

Is there anything different when using Pink Treat?
Yes! Your pool will go through a clean-up period that will last from one day to 3-4 weeks. During that clean-up period you may experience a low or no chlorine reading. Don't panic! Just chlorinate continuously. Don't shock! A chlorinator or feeder makes life easy and we recommend them. If you lose your chlorine residual during heavy rain, bather load, or high temperature, just increase your feed rate until the residual comes back.

Do I still need chlorine?
Yes! Pink Treat is activated with chlorine. After the initial treatment, chlorinate continuously which is much better than shocking.

How can my pool look so good without a chlorine residual?
Just as judging a person by age as to how he feels is not accurate, testing of pool water does not always tell you what's happening. Many chemistries in the pool can affect your test results. As long as you're feeding chlorine and the pool water looks good, you are reasonably safe.
