A pump discharge conduit system for allowing discharge from a pump to be discharged out of the structure. The pump discharge conduit system includes an output conduit being designed for extending through the wall of the structure. The output conduit comprises an inlet end and an outlet end. The inlet end of the output conduit is designed for being positioned in an interior of the structure whereby the inlet end is in fluid communication with the pump. The outlet end of the output conduit is positioned outside of the structure whereby the output conduit is for directing discharge from the pump to the outside of the structure through the outlet aperture.

The pump discharge conduit system as set forth in claim 1, further comprising: said seal member comprising a flexible material, said flexible material being adapted for conforming to a shape of the wall and filling any gaps between the wall and said output conduit to inhibit the environmental elements and insects from entering the structure between the wall and the output conduit. 3. The pump discharge conduit system as set forth in claim 1, further comprising: said output conduit comprising an exterior outlet thread, said exterior outlet thread being positioned adjacent said outlet end of said output conduit such that said exterior outlet thread is positioned in an exterior surface of said output conduit, said exterior outlet thread being adapted for being threadably engaged by a female drainage coupling to allow drainage piping to be coupled to said output conduit to direct the discharge from the pump away from the output conduit. 4. The pump discharge conduit system as set forth in claim 3, further comprising: said output conduit comprising a positioning thread, said positioning thread being positioned between said inlet end and said output end, said retaining member threadably engaging said positioning thread such that rotation of said retaining member with respect to said output conduit changes the positioning of said retaining member along said output conduit to permit said backing member and said retaining member to be adjusted to accommodate the wall positioned between said backing member and said retaining member. 5. The pump discharge conduit system as set forth in claim 1, further comprising: said output conduit comprising an interior outlet thread, said interior outlet thread being positioned adjacent said outlet end of said output conduit such that said interior outlet thread is positioned in an interior surface of said output conduit, said interior outlet thread being adapted for being threadably engaged by a male drainage coupling to allow drainage piping to be coupled to said output conduit to direct the discharge from the pump away from the output conduit. 6. The pump discharge conduit system as set forth in claim 1, further comprising: said output conduit comprising an exterior inlet thread, said exterior inlet thread being positioned adjacent said inlet end of said output conduit such that said exterior inlet thread is positioned in an exterior surface of said output conduit, said exterior inlet thread being adapted for being threadably engaged by a female discharge coupling to allow discharge piping from the pump to be coupled to said output conduit to direct the discharge from the pump into the output conduit. 7. The pump discharge conduit system as set forth in claim 1, further comprising: said output conduit comprising an interior inlet thread, said interior inlet thread being positioned adjacent said inlet end of said output conduit such that said interior inlet thread is positioned in an interior surface of said output conduit, said interior inlet thread being adapted for being threadably engaged by a male discharge coupling to allow discharge piping from the pump to be coupled to said output conduit to direct the discharge from the pump into the output conduit. 8. The pump discharge conduit system as set forth in claim 1, further comprising: said backing member being integrally coupled to said output conduit such that said backing member extends outwardly from said output conduit, said retaining member being positioned in spaced relationship to said backing member such that said backing member is adapted for abutting an exterior face of the wall of the structure, said backing member and said retaining member being adapted for pressing against the wall to inhibit sliding of said output conduit with respect to the wall. 9. A pump discharge conduit system for extending through a wall of a structure to allow a pump to discharge outside of the structure, the pump discharge conduit system comprising: an output conduit for extending through the wall of the structure for directing discharge from the pump to the outside of the structure, the output conduit comprising an inlet end for positioning in an interior of the structure and an outlet end for positioning outside of the structure; wherein the output conduit has an exterior surface, the exterior surface having an inlet portion located adjacent to the inlet end and an outlet portion located adjacent to the output end, the exterior surface of the output conduit having a medial portion located between the inlet portion and the outlet portion of the exterior surface; wherein the exterior surface of the output conduit has an inner intermediate portion between the medial portion and the inlet portion of the exterior surface, and the exterior surface of the output conduit has an outer intermediate portion between the medial portion and the outlet portion of the exterior surface; wherein each of the inlet, outlet, and medial portions of the exterior surface is exteriorly threaded; and wherein each of the inner intermediate portion and outer intermediate portion of the exterior surface is smooth and free of exterior threads; a backing member having an aperture through which the output conduit extends, the backing member being removably coupled to the medial portion of the exterior surface of the output conduit by interior threads formed on the aperture of the backing member; wherein the backing member has a substantially planar inward surface extending radially outwardly from the aperture of the backing member toward an outer perimeter of the backing member; wherein the inward surface of the backing member is oriented at an oblique angle to a longitudinal axis of the output conduit when the backing member is threaded onto the exterior surface of the output conduit for permitting the backing member to abut against an oblique outer surface of the wall in a substantially uniform manner. 10.
