22 is the large diameter hose and 15 is the slim line hose. The 22 and 15 is the diameter of the tube in centimeters. If you have the large hose set it on 22.

As Squid replyed.. The size 22 is pretty much the standard. Set it to that. 10 feet of hose is the longest you can use without making a small adjustment to the pressure to compensate for the loss of pressure. You will be just fine.
