The dispenser features a see-through construction that will enable users to see just how much water is inside and can be accessed via a built-in spigot with a handle. The incorporation of a [biometric fingerprint scanner](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outdoor-fingerprint-padlock) on the handle will automatically detect the user and will upload the data to the cloud where it can be used to analyze how much water members of the household are consuming. The Culligan Water water dispenser concept allows users to choose from three volumes of water for dispensing and takes design inspiration from a timer.
