Aqua Lifter for topoff

[FinalPhaze987]

Does anyone know if a aqua lifter can pump water about 15 feet? my laundry room is about 15 feet away where i have the RO/DI hooked up at the sink and was wondering if i could just place an aqua lifter in there and run some airline tubing to the tank for topoff..

I've used mine to pump about 10 feet, and it works, but the stream is noticeably weaker. My 10 feet was a horizontal run. I doubt it will do well with vertical head pressure. A perilistic dosing pump (even a cheap one) will do it much better.
