This added convenience means baptisms can occur quickly during a regular service. Baptistries can be equipped with railings, removable stepladders or stairs, and other supports, but unless your baptistry is custom designed, it's difficult to find one easily accessible by disabled persons. The next best solution is to ensure access to the baptistry and offer assistance as needed. Chair lifts manufactured for poolside use can also solve the problem. A candidate simply moves from a wheelchair to a pivoting chair lift, which lowers the candidate into the baptistry.
Mineral deposits can leave stains on fiberglass units.
If your community has heavy mineral content in its water supply, consider purchasing a blue fiberglass unit instead of a lighter color. The eyes have it. Purchase an inexpensive water-testing kit to monitor chlorine and pH levels. Unbalanced pH levels will cause burning eyes. Avoid leaving standing water in immersion tanks.
