One of the game's items, shelved under “Water, purity & plumbing”.

The icon the game draws

• HydraTech Micro Water Purifier

The game's own wording

Use on a water container to bring its contents up to Basewater purity, whatever's in it. It will use 1 durability per 100ml.

A disposable advanced water purifier, common in the Upper Levels. The discarded ones wash up in the Dumping Grounds, still good for a few more pours.

What the footage and the game establish

Site narration

The HydraTech Micro Water Purifier turns a jug of Rustwater into Basewater, costing about 60 points of its durability. Adding rat droppings and purifying again ends in Pure Water, and pitcher Water Filters can take Basewater further to High-Quality Water.

• Bilibili 00:21Rat-dropping brew: fill a container with Rustwater, purify it to Basewater with the HydraTech purifier, add 16 rat droppings, then re-purify with the HydraTech; repeating that filter pass ends in Pure Water.
• YouTube 27:44A jug of Rustwater can be brought up to Basewater with the HydraTech Micro Water Purifier, and that Basewater can then be run through pitcher Water Filters to reach High-Quality Water.
• YouTube 27:56Running one jug of Rustwater through the HydraTech Micro Water Purifier costs about 60 points of that unit’s durability.
