How To Use Water Filtration Machine Subnautica

Alright, future space explorers and master survivalists! Let's dive headfirst into the wonderful world of, well, staying alive in the watery depths. We're talking about water, that sweet, sweet elixir of life, and how to get it using the magical Water Filtration Machine in Subnautica.

Finding the Blueprint Fragments

First things first: Gotta find the recipe! Think of it like hunting for grandma's secret cookie recipe, but instead of cookies, you get life-saving H2O.

Head over to the Floating Island wrecks. Look around, rummage through the wreckage, and keep your eyes peeled for those shimmering blueprint fragments.

You will need two blueprint fragments to unlock the recipe to craft the water filtration machine.

Gathering the Goods

Now that you know what you're building, let's go shopping... underwater shopping, that is! Time to gather your materials, think of it like going to the underwater super market!

You'll need: 3 Titanium Ingots (smelted from 15 Titanium), 1 Glass (smelted from 2 Quartz), 1 Computer Chip, 1 Lubricant, and 3 Lead.

Titanium Ingots

Those Titanium Ingots? Scavenge for scrap metal, toss it into the Fabricator, and boom! Gold…err, I mean Titanium!

Glass

For that shiny Glass, keep an eye out for Quartz deposits. There are tons of these in the shallows.

Computer Chip

You'll need to craft the Computer Chip. For this you will need a Wiring Kit, Table Coral Sample, and Silver Ore.

Lubricant

Craft that Lubricant by combining Creepvine Seed Clusters in the Fabricator.

Lead

Last but not least, mine the Lead deposits to complete the recipe.

Building the Machine

Time to put those underwater construction skills to the test! You need a base, a habitat, the place where you will build the Filtration Machine.

Open up your Habitat Builder, find the Water Filtration Machine in the menu (it's under "Base - Miscellaneous"), and *bam*! Place that bad boy somewhere awesome.

Using the Machine

Alright, here comes the magic! Just wait.

The machine will slowly start churning out a Large Filtered Water and a Salt Deposit over time. No work for you.

Just swing by every so often to empty the machine. It produces a bottle of purified water every 20 minutes!

Pro-Tips for the Thirsty Survivor

Place the machine in the Multipurpose Room. It will save space.

Multiple machines mean more water and more salt. If you're planning a long journey, why not?

Salt Deposits are also very valuable because you can use them to craft bleach, which is important to produce more water.

Now, go forth, explore, and stay hydrated! Subnautica is a blast, and with your own personal water source, you're practically unstoppable!
