How to produce Pure Water in Probably Stolen
You can produce Pure Water in Probably Stolen by purifying a water jug, pitcher, or bottle with a +100% Quality Water Purifier. This is a must, as anything below the rating will stop the machine from reaching the 99.90% purification rate needed for the Pure Water label. You can reach the +100% Quality stat by equipping your purifiers with the right modules.
The time required for the purification will then vary based on the grade of the water used, with Rustwater demanding almost a week and High Quality bottles requiring only a night. To make checking your progress easier, we recommend acquiring an AquaScan, which can also be used to relabel products. The needed Quality modules can be acquired via scavenging and purchased from both Dr. Jackson and random customers.

How to get the Water Purifier in Probably Stolen
You can get the Water Purifier in Probably Stolen by purchasing it from specific NPCs for 250/300 Credits. To unlock the traders, either purchase the Water Trading starter kit at Wild’s Network (250 Credits) or start a playthrough with the Water Merchant specialization. The purifier demands a steady Power Source, so make sure to invest in a Recharger as well.
If you want to build a self-sustaining water production system, unlocking the Gutterflow via Gutterflow on Tap is also a must, as it allows you to get a secured water supply at no energy cost. Unlockable at Wild’s Network, the store feature can be installed for 250 Credits and upgraded for an extra 350. It’s also possible to start a run with the Gutterflow unlocked by picking the Working Piper perk (-2).
Now that you know how to build your own Pure Water production station, don’t forget to take a look at all endings in Probably Stolen and how to unlock them.
