Pool Lift Legislation

Pool Lifts and ADA Pool Regulations

Recent ADA pool lift regulations went into effect January 31, 2013. Any swimming pool, spa, or wading pool open to the public must meet the U.S. Department of Justice's ADA Title II and III requirements by having an accessible means of entry or exit for people with disabilities. To learn more on the pool lift regulations and requirements visit the ADA's website.

How does this affect your property?

Any pool open to the public must comply with this regulation. Title II affects school districts, municipalities, cities, and counties. Title III affects hotels, motels, places of public accommodation, health clubs, country clubs, and recreation centers.

Failure to comply could result in costly fines or legal action.
