I would like to find a pump that can pump ro/di water from basement up to the first floor. Is there such a pump that can do that? I do have an Apex that can manage the pump.

there's lots of pumps that will do it but it would be a larger high flow pump probably. are you looking for a submersible or external pump

a mag drive 9.5 and up should work

Is there anything smaller? Like something almost the same size as the hose used in an ro unit?

Fitting wise?

Actually does the mag 9.5 accept pvc fittings? Maybe I can keep down sizing it unit I get to a hose that will fit my need.

It should with the appropriate thread adapter and reducers. I don't own a mag drive myself so I don't know for a fact

might need a bigger pump than the 9.5 due to high head pressures of going to a smaller line

It's rated for 50 fee of head pressure. I use one for a slightly different application and can attest to the quality.
