I attached a hose to the my 70 pint water container in my dehumidifier with

receptacle not draining into the sump pump. What am i missing?

How about telling us the make and model number.


Since this is from Homeowners Hub, it's probably from 1958 or something
like that. By now, those 70 pints per day have flooded the basement, and
the OP has drowned in that basement.....

The OP asked "What am i missing?".
He probably missed his own funeral, because his body got sucked into the
sump pump and was discharged into a public storm sewer.
