Our best-selling lift for most applications, the Model IGAT-180 was designed to comply with the current recommendations and pending requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). It is user-operable, and its seat height is easily adjustable to accommodate various wheelchair heights. The 180 degree turn allows the greatest access from the deck for the user and any assistants. Side-to-side transfers are easy, the footrest flips up and the mounting arm is under the seat. This allows for unobstructed transfer. The seat rotates forward when entering the pool, and backward when exiting the water. The standard seat has a right arm only, but a flip-up outer arm is available. Just let us know your needs when ordering. We strive to make our lifts fit your needs. Refer to the drawing, "REQUIRED DIMENSIONS FOR IGAT LIFT MODELS," for the dimensions we need for this model.

Static pressure (measured at faucet or hose with no water flowing) is affected by variables in the material, length, diameter, and rigidity of the water lines and hoses from the street to the lift, and by how many other faucets are open at the same time. Operating pressure requirement (measured while lifting) is not affected by these variables.

3. Answer the following questions to further describe your pool environment for our staff:

a. Is the deck flat or does it slope? __________________________________________

b. If the deck has a slope, how much of a slope is it? _____________________________

c. What is the pool deck's composition (wooden decks require a socket plate).__________

_____________________________________________________________________

d. Is the deck built on a solid foundation such as gravel over ground fill or is there a mechanical 

room or void underneath? _________________________________________________

If there is such a room, please describe it: ______________________________________

______________________________________________________________________

e. What is the composition of the pool's walls?___________________________________

f. Is there a vinyl liner in the pool? _____________________________________________

g. Is there an automatic pool cover? ___________________________________________

h. Will the lift be used in multiple locations? ______________________________________

i. Is this location on city water?_________ What is the approximate pressure? ___________

j. What is the weight of the person who will be using the lift? _________________________

Socket placement for the IGAT models is critical, and will be determined by our engineering team based on the dimensions of your pool. Generally the socket for the IGAT-180 and IGAT-90 needs to be placed at least 15" from the edge of the pool and at least 36" from the pool's corner or other obstacles to its rotation. SEE DRAWING OF IGAT SOCKET PLACEMENT. The IGAT-180AD socket needs be placed at least 18" from the edge of the pool and at least 36" from the pool's corner or any other obstacle to its rotation. SEE DETAILED DRAWING OF IGAT-180AD SOCKET PLACEMENT.
