Post type pool hoist with rotating and lifting seat carriages

In the last 20 years Wymo has designed many types of lifting devices for the disabled as well as those with minor mobility problems.

The pool access hoist is designed for use in conjunction with a carer

The hoist has a winch unit located a the top of a stainless steel post. The winch lifts and lowers a seated carriage. The carriage is then rotated, by the carer, over the pool then lowered in to the water.

A self operated system is available on application.

Wymo Lifting Aids has a full range post type hoists for in ground pools, in ground spas, above ground pools as well as swim spas.

The building code of Australia requires a pool hoist within 136 kg safe working load capacity and 210 kg static load capacity. The Pool Access Hoist is compliant to the BCA requirements. (download certification pdf)
