15. I know a 2.5 can do it

we went through 3 or 4 submersibles in the surface storage down there, they could pump the full distance/pressure, but they couldn't handle it varying like when we wanted to just pump to the halfway or when a leak/pipe break would happen down lower on the line. This thing can take just about anything you can throw at it except freezing or running dry for hours.

it gets it's own special heating pad in the winter.
