A 35psi will reach 60ft so a 100 should do any height you like. Does it have a pressure switch fitted ?

1psi = 2ft of lift, that is 1 bar = 14.7psi = 30ft lift so roughly 2ft per psi.

therefore a 100psi pump will pump to 200ft but that is only the pressure switch setting, it will pump as high as the internal setting in the varistream is set, I think max on the varistream is roughly 130psi with the 8000 series shurflo pumps.  Basically its an awful lot higher than you can pole to.

I know that tucker pole sell their tanks with 100psi sureflow pumps and varistream and the have the longest pole on the market at the moment which is 83ft so you shouldn't have a problem.  They also have 50 meters of hose reel as well.
