Your concrete floor in the lanai has expansion joints cut in it . Some of the joints will run underneath the aluminum frame to the outside. If they are not clogged they will let the water drain out. It sounds like the paint or what ever was used to finish your floor has filled up those expansion joints. You need something to clear the joints. My lanai was stained , the joints are not clogged or filled with dirt. I take a hose to wash it down . It drains thru the expansion joints.
