Battery-powered with a 2-button water-resistant corded handset for full independent operation. 350 lb capacity. 14\" standard deck-to-water draft. 14.5\"–19\" setback range. Ships fully assembled.

The Ranger 2 does not rotate. Instead, the user sits parallel to the pool edge — in the same orientation they would sit in a chair at poolside — and the lift moves in a single out-and-down arc directly into the water. No rotation required, no moment where the user is suspended sideways over the water while the arm swings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003cp\u003eThis design provides three practical advantages:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGreater feeling of security\u003c\/strong\u003e — users consistently report the non-rotational single-motion entry feels more controlled and less alarming than rotating lift systems; there is no lateral swing, no moment of imbalance over the water, and no requirement to hold position during rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSmaller footprint\u003c\/strong\u003e — no rotation arc means the Ranger 2 requires less deck clearance than rotating arm lifts; important for pools with limited deck space\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndependent operation\u003c\/strong\u003e — the 2-button handset controls the entire lift motion; the user can operate the Ranger 2 without assistance from poolside staff; an essential feature for ADA compliance in commercial settings and genuine independence in residential use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n \n\u003ch2\u003eField Reversible — Left or Right Access\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \n\u003cp\u003eThe Ranger 2's field reversible design allows the lift to be configured for left-side or right-side access without ordering additional parts or a different model.

The Ranger 2's all-stainless steel frame with UV-resistant powder coat finish is specifically built for these conditions. Stainless steel resists chlorine-induced corrosion that compromises standard steel or aluminum over time. The UV-resistant powder coat prevents the fading and degradation that sunlight exposure causes in standard finishes. The result is a lift that maintains its appearance and structural integrity through years of poolside exposure without the maintenance demands of painted or galvanized steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003ch2\u003eADA Compliance — What It Covers and What It Doesn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \n\u003cp\u003eThe 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design (Section 1009) require that public pools provide at least one accessible means of entry — for pools with over 300 linear feet of pool wall, two accessible means of entry are required, with at least one being a pool lift. The Ranger 2 meets these requirements, but ADA compliance of the installation as a whole depends on several factors beyond the lift itself:\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnchor installation\u003c\/strong\u003e — the lift must be properly anchored to the pool deck; the anchor must be installed per Aqua Creek's specifications to satisfy ADA stability requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeck clearance\u003c\/strong\u003e — ADA requires clear deck space around the lift for wheelchair access; verify your pool deck layout provides the required clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeat position over water\u003c\/strong\u003e — the lift must position the user appropriately relative to the water entry point; the 14\" deck-to-water draft and adjustable setback range accommodate most standard in-ground pool configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperational independence\u003c\/strong\u003e — the Ranger 2's 2-button handset meets the ADA requirement for independent user operation without pool staff assistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n \n\u003cp\u003eIf you are purchasing the Ranger 2 for a commercial facility to meet ADA requirements, call us before purchase — we can discuss anchor installation requirements, deck clearance, and any documentation needs: \u003ca href=\"tel:8662180902\"\u003e866-218-0902\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003ch2\u003eWarranty — Aqua Creek's Industry-Leading Coverage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n \n\u003cp\u003eAqua Creek offers what they describe as the best warranties in the pool lift industry — and the Ranger 2's coverage supports that claim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003ch3\u003eStructural Warranty — 5 Years\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull 5-year coverage on the stainless steel frame and structural components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \n\u003ch3\u003eElectronics Warranty — 5 Years Prorated\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYears 1–2:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% replacement coverage on non-structural components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear 3:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60% replacement coverage (customer responsible for 40% of replacement cost)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear 4:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50% replacement coverage (customer responsible for 50% of replacement cost)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear 5:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40% replacement coverage (customer responsible for 60% of replacement cost)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n \n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#fff8e6; border:1px solid #e8b84b; border-left:4px solid #c8952a; padding:12px 16px; border-radius:0 4px 4px 0; margin:16px 0; font-size:14px; color:#444;\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003eWarranty exclusions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Damage from accident, misuse, abuse, negligence, improper maintenance, or normal wear and tear.
