In the title compound, {(C5H14N2)[Cd2Cl6]·H2O}n, the asymmetric unit contains one piperazinediium cation, one [Cd2Cl6]2− anion and a water mol­ecule. The coordination geometries of the two Cd2+ cations are distorted octa­hedral. Adjacent CdII atoms are inter­connected alternately by paired chloride bridges, generating polymeric chains parallel to [010]. Neighbouring chains are connected by O—H...Cl hydrogen bonds involving the water mol­ecules, forming layers at z = n/2. The crystal packing is further stabilized by inter­molecular N—H...Cl and N—H...O hydrogen bonds, one of which is bifurcated.
