Reclaimed Water (Subnautica)
![]()
Reclaimed Water is a Food item that replenishes the player's H₂O levels.
Unlike Disinfected Water and Filtered Water, it is not crafted, but is a result of the filtering process of the Water Filtration Suit.
Stats
- Type: Food
- H₂O: +20
- Food: -3
Acquisition
The player gets around two Reclaimed Water bags within one day when the suit is placed in the main slot of the paperdoll UI to take effect.
Whenever the Water Filtration Suit has processed enough fluids, the game will notify the player of this by saying "Picked up reclaimed water".
Trivia
- Reclaimed Water is the combination of various bodily fluids produced from sweating, urinating, etc. Despite various filtration systems and neutralizers that the Water Filtration Suit possesses, drinking such fluids is generally unhealthy unless in an emergency situation, hence the loss of food points.
- If the player has more than 100 points of food, drinking reclaimed water will not reduce food points.
- In Subnautica, when first creating a water filtration suit, the PDA will ask the player if they wish to enable flavour neutralisation for the liquids that are reclaimed. Due to Ryley's unresponsiveness, the PDA defaults this setting to no, forcing him to taste liquids such as sweat and urine.
