The Webpage there displays the pump as a Shallow well pump for home use. Then
it
will be designed for at least 100 psi and over 10 gal. per minute rate.

Well pumps are usually on a 30-50 psi switch. Some even run 20-40. I have
never
seen one running over 70.
I know my well will put out ~12.5 gal per minute on a 30-50 switch for 20
hours
because I just filled my pool.

This is Turtle.

Pumps are '' rated '' at 100 psi for water flow ability or Gal. per minute but
are not run at 100 psi in the operation of a home well system. The pressure of
the water in the home system is dictated by the pressure regulator / control
installed on it and like you say 30 to 50 psi on them.

The 10 Gal. Per minute is the low end of the scale for a water well service to a
home. You have 12.5 gal per minute filling the pool so you have a little better
than normal. They make lesser pumps than your to be called normal.
