ADA and Pool Lifts

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a wide-ranging civil rights law that prohibits discrimination based on disability. Enforcement of ADA laws are carried out by the Department of Justice (DOJ). Both public and private entities are required to provide "accessible means of entry for pools". Larger pools (greater than 300 linear feet) require at least two means of access and smaller pools (less than 300 linear feet) require at least one means of access.
