The 5-min displayed in the video is subjective and solely based on the individual's requirements and pump model being used.

There are plenty of setups running their pumps with limits at 25 minutes, some even longer. It all depends on the person's setup and system size. Of course one must also consider the wear this puts on the pump. A D2.1 motor running for 25 minutes will have more wear on it then a Maxi motor due to being much smaller in size. For these pumps we recommend running the pump for up to 15 minutes for maximum motor longevity. Running it longer than that (30 or 45 minutes), will still work, but may not be ideal due to the higher demands of the tank setup. That's where a Maxi motor or dedicated utility pump become a more efficient option.
