Bingo!

This is where you can try to calculate the pressure drop, and spec out a good pump. You'll find that the pump you want can handle a higher pressure.

I remember seeing a guy on OC forum that bought a pool pump, but he didn't consider the pressure aspect: the result is that it would do no better than my Little Giant 2-MDQ-SC. In fact it would use a lot more power to do the same job.
