SOURCE: haier 30 pint dehumidifier continuous drain problem.
Many just attach the hose at the reservoir; from your description, Haier apparently has a separate location. Check that the point that the hose attaches has an opening (many don't, they expect you to drill it). It should then drain through gravity. Check to make sure that no part of the drain hose is higher than the bottom of the reservoir, otherwise it can't drain. It won't siphon because each time the the tank empties, the suction is broken and the siphoning can't continue.

Your dehumidifier should have come with a tube which would allow you to do this very easily. I beleive the part number is 5214A20027B.
SOURCE: I have an amana dehumidifier. I have a drain hose
Check to see if you have a clog in the drain hose from the mold and algae that builds up.
SOURCE: I have a drain hose hooked to the dehumidifier,
The bucket should not fill up. Did you remember to take/knock the plug out of the drain hole?
SOURCE: Danby ddr7009ree - continuous drain won't work
I have the same Danby unit and the same problem. When you take out the water bucket look inside and find the two holes where the water drips into the bucket. These holes are approximately 5/16" and 3/8" diameter. These holes need to be plugged. Your local hardware store has an assortment of specialized parts boxes. Find the box that contains "corks" of various sizes. They sell for about 20¢ apiece. I bought 5 within that size catagory and two of them worked! Problem solved.
