Polluted water in sinks and lavatories gives me wrong element damage?

[gelat]

I'm on the latest hotfix, and running polluted water to my bathrooms and sinks causes wrong element damage. Temp is only 30C

And? You must pump clean water inside.

i don't see anything wrong outside of a poor choice of hygiene

[gelat]

i thought you could send polluted water to the bathroom with no issues, and same to plants, as long as they were cooked ? Did I miss something?

germy water, still have to sieve it, and recommend cooling it after sieving.

imagine if you will the filter was a simple as a t-shirt, you can poop in a bucket of water, poor that through a t-shirt, the water looks clean but its germy.  Same principle here.

if you don't atleast filter out the poop its still dirty water

so filter dirty water to make clean, will still be germy but safe for toilets, sinks, showers, and hydroponics

Water and polluted water is a different element.

You need to feed plants the correct liquid, same for electrolyzers, sinks etc.

You shouldnt go washing your hands with someone elses poop!

Don't tell other people how to live!

Maybe he likes washing his hands with someone elses poop... 

Otherwise how is possible that he didn't know that he should have used water?

Back when the game was first available to play, you could run showers, sinks, and bathrooms on infinite polluted water loops, but that was patched I think before the introduction of cold carrots and cold biome.
