Note 1: Height is measured from floor to top of handle. **Diameter measurement is tank only, control valve not included.
Higher flow rates are possible but filter effectiveness is reduced.
Note 2: Pump is required for use. Typically you would use an external pump which will be stronger to stir up the media for a proper backwash.
