Will a Pool Pump Lift Water?

Published in Pool Maintenance 1 min read

Yes, a pool pump can lift water, but there are limitations.

A standard pool pump can typically lift water vertically up to 15 feet. Custom-engineered systems can even handle greater heights, capable of priming pumps positioned up to 25 feet above the water's surface. These enhanced systems can also accommodate any size of plumbing.

Therefore, whether a pool pump can lift water effectively depends on the specific pump model, its power, and the vertical distance required.
