How could a generation ship maintain a source of potable water?

A generation spaceship (a spaceship designed for multiple generations of humans to live in) could sail through the galaxy for hundreds of years before finding another planet, let alone a planet with water. What method would such a spaceship use to maintain a source of water fit for humans to drink (for an indefinite period of time)?
