business idea feedback- improved vending machine

I have an idea for a new type of vending machine that dispenses fountain soda instead of regular bottles. the profit margins would be about 60% more than that of regular vending machines since concentrated syrup is cheaper than full bottles. the only real problems are that its going to need a water line to be installed and sanitation could become an issue. other than that it seems promising
