An apparatus for producing pure water from raw water, comprises a reverse osmotic membrane unit, a polisher, an ultraviolet sterilizer, a high pressure pump for forcing raw water to flow through a reverse osmotic membrane in said reverse osmotic membrane unit to produce pure water permeated therethrough, and for feeding pure water to a use point, and a circulating line extending between said use point and a suction side of said high pressure pump for circulating pure water therebetween. With this construction, degradation of pure water due to stagnation is avoided.
