Does anyone know how high or far the tunze 3155 pump can pump water with out any issues? Trying to figure out to put my ato container in the basement and pump water up stairs. Abt 12ft height wise and 8-9 ft long, thanks!

If you open the controller and set the pump speed to Max, the 0 point is 9ft of head, basically at full power it can handle 8ft, for a greater head pressure the switched outlet 3150.110 can be used with for example a high pressure low flow pump like an Iwaki.

I don't follow. It basically reaches zero flow at 9ft, but it would be able to top off to 8ft assuming no additional backpressure from inline devices.
