Description
You can obtain water by smelting or crushing Ice (Water) using a Furnace or an Ice Crusher. Water is critical for plants to stay alive, and grow food.
It is also an exceptional coolant with a very high specific heat capacity. Water will evaporate into Steam if its temperature is raised above its boiling point.

Usage
Water needs to be consumed by the player in order to stay alive. Water can be consumed from a Water Bottle or water fountain. The water bottle can be filled using a Water Bottle Filler.
Water is used when showering to recover Hygiene. It is also used to grow plants in a Hydroponic Tray or a Hydroponic Station. Water pollution occurs as a byproduct of using specific devices, resulting in Polluted Water.
Water has a specific heat of 72 J/mol*K and a latent heat of 8000 J/mol making it great for cooling applications.
Sources
You can obtain water by smelting Ice (Water) using a Furnace or crushing Ice (Water) using Ice Crusher, or by combusting Volatiles and Oxygen using the Kit (Atmospherics) H2 Combustor. Filtering is no longer required as the Furnace and Ice Crusher now contain separate outputs for liquids and gases.
Water can also be obtained by filtering polluted water.

History
Water was previously treated as a Gas. It could be part of the atmosphere, and could be stored in gas tanks and pipes. However, since with "Go with the flow" update, a new system for liquids has been introduced, including separate pipes, tanks, pumps, etc for liquids.
