Yes vacuum will lift water to 30 ft at atmospheric pressure at sea level at higher elevations the amount of lift decreases.

Also at higher elevations water will boil at a lower temperature and or this reason liquid cooled engines have radiator caps rated at 15 psi. The cap mechanically keeps the coolant at sea level regardless of the elevation.

The new precision digital sale recently purchased due to the elevation of where I live, the sale had to be re calibrated to compensate for this.

A: All scales are affected by altitude. Weight is essentially the pull of gravity. The further from the core of the Earth, the less gravity, thus the less you weigh.
