Not sure if the EdgeMate Pool Chair will work with your pool’s edge? Let’s break it down!
The EdgeMate Pool Chair fits most in-ground swimming pools, but, due to the diverse nature of pool design, not all of them.
And while no qualifying test is perfect, if you are able to answer yes to the following two questions, EdgeMate is likely to be compatible with your in-ground swimming pool.
*NOTE: EdgeMate is not compatible with: above ground pools, infinity-edge pools, tanning ledges, travertine pool decks or pools with a gutter.
Do you have a flat/level pool deck and coping?
Do you have a flat/ level (vertical) pool wall?
*NOTE: EdgeMate is suitable for use in pools with a vinyl-liner and salt water pools.
Here is a profile view of a compatible pool. Notice how the pad on the support bar has complete contact with the level pool surface (coping). Additionally, the uprights on the main frame (shown in purple above) run parallel (alongside) the pool wall. This creates two stable touch points, one on the pool deck & one on the wall. The chair must maintain contact with both the pool wall and the pool deck at all times to function properly.
Due to the pool’s sloped edge (coping), the pad on the support bar does NOT have complete contact with the surface. Therefore, EdgeMate Pool Chair will NOT hold a stationary position to function properly.
Again, EdgeMate is not compatible with: above ground pools, infinity-edge pools, tanning ledges, travertine pool decks or pools with a gutter.
Sitting in EdgeMate is no different than sitting in a conventional chair. While a swimmer’s height and water depth will often vary, one should always make a point of sitting down into EdgeMate.
If a swimmer has to step up on one foot (like they would a bar stool), they should position the chair in more shallow water.
