How do I make an infinite water source in Sandustry?
Choose the infinite-water setup and follow its listed steps. The guide uses the Cryoblaster/freezing-ice route shown in the tool.
WATER / FACTORY PLANNING
Sandustry Water Planner: Sources, Pumps & Water Balance
Need more water for your Sandustry factory? Use this planner to work through common water setups, estimate how many pumps your measured flow requires, compare water supply with machine use and calculate an Electrolyzer batch. Choose the situation that matches your factory instead of guessing how much water the system needs.
Make an infinite Water source
Use the Cryoblaster to create Freezing Ice, then melt the ice to supply Water.

Estimate Pump count
Enter the rate you measured for one Pump and the Water your factory needs each minute.
4 Pumps120 ÷ 30 = 4.00; rounded up.
Water balance
Check whether Water entering your setup covers its use.
+0.00 Water/minSupply matches use.
Electrolyzer batch
Enter Water on the left and right sides, plus available energy.

What you can plan
Use the setup guides for an infinite water source, moving water through your factory, collecting rain, supplying an Electrolyzer or building a Wet Sand basin. The pump estimator uses the rate you measured in your own game, while the water-balance section compares production and stored water against machine use and other losses.
How to use the Water Planner
Choose the water task first. Follow the checklist for that setup, then enter your measured pump rate and required water flow if you need a pump estimate. For a balance check, use the same time unit for every rate.
Frequently asked questions
How many pumps do I need?
Enter the water required per minute and the measured output of one pump. The planner divides demand by measured output and rounds up.
Can I use this for Electrolyzers?
Yes. Enter the left and right water cells and available energy to review the batch shown by the tool.
