An improved hydration station comprises a wall mounted unit including a stationary lower body panel coupled to a drain, and a hinged upper body panel carrying a nozzle subassembly for dispensing water into a recess alcove defined cooperatively by the lower and upper body panels in response to user-insertion of a water-receiving receptacle into the alcove. The preferred wall unit includes a non-contact sensor for controlling water dispensing flow, and a preferred nozzle assembly includes at least one component having an antimicrobial additive. A preferred control timer automatically dispenses water in the event that the sensor does not detect a user-inserted receptable within a predetermined time interval, such as 24 hours. In addition, in a preferred form, lights on the unit are energized at one level during water dispensing, and at a second level when water is not being dispensed.
