Don’t know the brand since I’m not at the lake now, but I have a 1 ½ hp unit that I bought from Home Depot. Lowe’s has the same type units, but a different manufacturer. It has a 220 v motor and works like a charm. Last year, as the water dropped, I just kept adding intake pipe (1 ½ “ sch. 40 pvc). I must have spliced into it and added three different times. It would take longer to prime each time, but low and behold, it picked up a prime each time. I watered from the lake all summer. I have a flat lot and don’t have a 60 foot vertical climb, but feel certain it would do it.
