Water Purifier

I'm having trouble figuring out how to get a water purifier to work. I built a generator first, and then went to some nearby water and build a water purifier. My settlement still had no water. Then I noticed there was an option for attaching a wire from the generator to the purifier. That made sense, so I went ahead and did that, but still no water is being produced. I think somehow I failed to attach the wire, but I don't see how.

 

I go to the generator and bring up the workshop display. Then I click on the option to attach a wire. When I turn and start walking down to where the purifier is I can see the animation of a sparking wire in front of me. I get to the purifier and the wire snaps into position to make the connection. At this point the workshop is presenting me with 4 options: Cancel, Attach Wire, Tag for Search, and Exit. I select Attach Wire but nothing happens. It seems that the purifier is still without power. What did I do wrong?

How far away is your geny from the purifier? If the wire turns red, you gotta set up some poles to link it up properly. Not sure if it effects the water rating but you might wanna install a water pump too. I did that first. Soon as i linked up all the poles then to the purifier the water went up.

Yeah the pylons. Maybe at the end of the line youll need the bigger tower too like i did. I placed mine under the bridge. I would recommend fortifying it too, like make a tin shack with a turret or 2.

 

Ive found that screws and adhesives are th3 most valuable/rare things, youll find enough copper to get you going if you look for it.
