Today I noticed that my dehumidifier was leaking. I have it set up to automatically drain, the drain connection was not leaking, and when I moved it I hear water INSIDE of the unit (not in the normal catch area), and when I tilted it Niagra falls came out, but I can't figure out where? I didn't even know dehumidifiers could have water inside of the sealed part? Any one know where the water actually is and how to stop it from going there so it won't leak? Thanks

....The drain hose is not plugged

As a suggestion, take off the drain hose and see if water comes out from the unit. If it doesn't, then I would bet it was plugged up inside. There is usually a container that collects the water, if that has something in it blocking the drain the water can't get out to hose.

You will have to move the 100 gal, i know it's going to be an amazing feat to do, but that's all you can do, otherwise the sump will keep leaking all over the floor. Once you find the leak, you have to seal it with this aquarium glue stuff, you can find it at your local pet store.

Is the drain hose plugged or kinked?
