Somehow it just doesn't seem as though lifting water that distance
should be so difficult (unless you are talking bucket on a rope). For
$40.00 you can buy a simple centrifugal pump that is rated at a 23ft
lift. http://makeashorterlink.com/?M2DC126FB


A pump that pumps to a 23 foot head probably isn't going to move much water at 20 feet.

Even if it does move water very slowly, what is lost besides a few hours
of time? A pump doesn't need to be watched for it to work so OP can be
doing something else while it moves the water at its own pace. This
looked like a cheap solution for a job which probably won't be done very
often or need to be done quickly.
