Resort swimming pool at golden-hour sunset, the kind of commercial pool the Aqua Creek Admiral ADA pool lift serves

Aqua Creek Admiral · F-ADMRL ADA Pool Lift

Every swimmer.
Every day.

The Aqua Creek Admiral is a compact, non-rotating, battery-powered pool lift built in the USA from stainless steel. It lifts up to 450 lb and gives in-ground pools and spas ADA-compliant access that looks at home on any deck.

The Admiral's 450 lb capacity opens the pool to more swimmers. Its non-rotating design keeps the lift solid and simple, and the all-stainless-steel frame has a durable white powder-coat finish made for the pool environment.

  • 450 lb (204 kg) maximum weight capacity
  • Stable, non-rotating design for in-ground pools and spas
  • 304 stainless steel with a durable powder-coat finish

Low Profile, Small Footprint

Designed for the Deck

A Pool Lift That Blends In

The Admiral doesn't stand too tall and takes up very little deck space, so it fits in with almost any décor. It is field reversible, so the same lift can be set up to work from either side, and the adjustable base plate adds flexibility when fitting it to your pool.

  • Compact footprint and low profile on the deck
  • Field reversible: set up for left- or right-hand use
  • Adjustable base plate for more fitting flexibility
  • White frame with a blue seat and footrest (F-ADMRL)

Comfort and Control

Aqua Creek Admiral Features

Everything a swimmer needs for a secure, comfortable transfer, and everything staff need to run it.

Flip-Up Armrests

Both armrests flip up and out of the way for transfers onto the seat.

Footrest and Seat Belt

An adjustable footrest and a seat belt keep the rider supported and secure from the deck to the water.

Water-Resistant Handset

A simple two-button handset raises and lowers the seat.

Rechargeable Battery

A rechargeable 24V battery powers the lift, and it comes with a wall-mount charger.

How It Works

How the Aqua Creek Admiral Works

A battery-powered actuator pivots the lift arm to carry the seat between the deck and the water. Here is a full cycle, from deck to water and back.

  1. Transfer at Deck Level

    The seat starts in its raised position over the deck, with the seat centerline at least 16 in. from the pool edge and the seat 16 to 19 in. above the deck. The flip-up armrests swing out of the way so the swimmer can transfer onto the seat.

  2. Get Secure

    Lower the armrests, fasten the seat belt, and rest the feet on the adjustable footrest.

  3. Press DOWN

    The handset has two buttons, DOWN and UP. Pressing DOWN runs the Linak 24V battery-powered actuator, which pivots the lift arm and carries the seat out over the pool edge and down into the water. The lift does not rotate.

  4. Into the Water

    At the bottom of its travel, the seat sits at least 18 in. below the water line, the depth the ADA requires for a pool lift.

  5. Press UP to Return

    Pressing UP reverses the motion and brings the seat back up and over to the deck, ready for the transfer off.

  6. Recharge

    Keep a battery on the wall-mount charger. The battery sounds an audible alarm (beeping) when its charge drops too low to run the lift.

Before each use, run the lift through a full cycle without a load to make sure it is working properly.

Easier Transfers

Set the Seat Where It Works

The adjustable seat pole lets you raise or lower the seat to suit your deck and your swimmers, which makes the Admiral easier to use for people transferring from taller wheelchairs.

Questions

Aqua Creek Admiral Pool Lift FAQ

Straight answers about the F-ADMRL

No. F-ADMRL is the lift only. The Admiral works with the Aqua Creek Pro Pool Series anchors F-04CAJP (standard concrete), F-046QAB-AT1 (quick-attach concrete), F-08CAJP (8 in. paver) and F-40220-AT1 (wood deck). The anchor must be installed before the lift.

The Admiral is rated for 450 lb (204 kg). Never exceed the rated lifting capacity.

Yes. The seat pole adjusts 6 in. in 2 in. increments, which helps transfers from taller wheelchairs. Aqua Creek notes that seat positions above 19 in. are not ADA compliant.

Yes. Aqua Creek says the footrest can be removed when the seat comes down onto a bench or when you need more clearance. For commercial spas, the ADA treats footrests as optional.

Yes. The Admiral is field reversible, so the same lift can be configured for left- or right-hand use. Aqua Creek publishes field reversal instructions.

Run the lift through a full cycle without a load before each use to confirm it works. If the lift will sit unused for a long period, remove the battery and store it on the plugged-in wall charger in a climate-controlled area.

Use and Care for Your Admiral Pool Lift

From the Aqua Creek Admiral owner's manual

Before Each Use

Cycle the lift without a load to verify it is working, then inspect and clean it. Never use the lift to enter an empty pool, and never jump or dive from it.

Cleaning

Wash with fresh water, never pool water, and dry with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Don't spray water directly on the control box or battery.

Storage

Keep the lift covered when not in use, and don't store it in a pump room or near pool chemicals.

Supervision

Never swim alone. Don't let children play on or around the lift, and supervise them at all times.

Installation must follow the Aqua Creek Admiral owner's manual and local code, which may require the lift to be bonded. Post the included ADA pool/spa lift sign where ADA compliance is required.
