With his daughter Linda, John established Aquatic Access Inc. in 1987. Currently
Linda continues to serve as president, and son David Nolan is vice-president and chief engineer. David holds the patent
on the versatile IGAT-180 design, which set a new standard for the pool lift
industry, and continues to lead the way in providing access to the widest variety of swimming pool and spa designs.
All of the IGAT-180 models meet or exceed the pending ADA, ADA and CBC guidelines for public swimming pool access. All of these
lifts work with water pressure, and there are no
electricity, expensive batteries, or complicated machinery involved. The renewable, earth-friendly power of water is readily available in homes and commercial properties around the world.
Aquatic Access offers a full line of
water-powered lifts for in-ground pools and spas,
above-ground pools and spas, portable spas, swim spas, and for most whirlpool,
therapy, or rehabilitation tubs and pools, including those
with six-foot walls. We also build lifts for boats,
for docks, and for cruise ships to provide access to pools and spas. Among the innovative Aquatic Access lifts is the Model IGAT-180AD -- a user-operable lift for in-ground pools which is entirely above the deck to accommodate pools with covers, an automatic lift -- Model IGAT 180/135 -- for spas and pools with built-in seats; heavy-duty versions of most lift models; and a special two-piece seat for people who require a wider seat.
It is our ability to create lifts for unique situations that has made Aquatic Access an integral part of several projects for the popular, Emmy Award-winning program Extreme Makeover: Home Edition in 2004, 2006,and in 2008. Because our customers are unique and offer a unique set of challenges to an engineer, we work closely with every customer to be certain each lift perfectly fits the pool where it is to be installed. Often these customers become lifelong friends of Aquatic Access and its employees.
In the summer of 2008, Aquatic Access provided a new IGAT-180 pool lift to Camp Cedar Ridge in Kentucky to enable easy access to the pool for MDA campers. It was our privilege to visit the camp and watch the campers enjoy the pool. Click here to share our day at camp.
