The distance is it from the pump (down in the well) to the machine (somewhere above ground level)?

You also need the following information:
The diameter of pipe you want to use for the water transportation
The total volume of the machine (water needed to fill it up)
The rate at which you want the machine to be filled up, putting into consideration the water delivery pressure)
