Mekanism: Water Provider
by SALTWOOD
Mekanism: Water Provider adds a single block to Mekanism that supplies water without limit, similar to the sink-style machines of the Mekanism industrial line.
What it does
The mod adds one machine block, the water provider, which produces unlimited water for a Mekanism setup. It needs Mekanism to be installed, since the block is built on Mekanism's machine framework and recipes. Crafting uses redstone, osmium ingots, steel ingots and buckets.
The mod is published for NeoForge on Minecraft 1.21.1 only, with the 1.1.0 file dated 2026-07-26 as the latest build. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is open source under the MIT License, and public links to the source and issue tracker are available.
Key features
Unlimited water block
The water provider outputs water without a source supply, so machines and tanks can be filled from one block.
Mekanism-style machine
The block sits alongside Mekanism's industrial machines and follows their placement and interaction patterns.
Metal-based crafting
The recipe combines redstone, osmium ingots, steel ingots and buckets, drawing on Mekanism's material chain.

Use cases
Filling a Mekanism setup
A player can route the provided water into a fluid network that feeds other Mekanism machines without building a pump line.
Who it’s for: Players who already run Mekanism and want a water source for their machine setups. Server owners who run Mekanism can add it to a modpack alongside the base mod.

What the author says
Water provider — a Mekanism addon for Minecraft 1.21.1 / NeoForge that adds a single machine: the Water Provider (water_provider). The build pulls Mekanism from modmaven.dev. A locally built Mekanism jar in a sibling../Mekanism/build/libs directory, if present, takes precedence.
