-Maintaining a proper water level in the boiler is critical. This is done by observing the water gauge and adjusting the amount of water in the tank accordingly. The water level should be visible on the water gauge at all times. This range typically shows between 75% and 85% of the boiler height, which is the intended range of operation. Blowdown valve is used to dump water from the boiler, while the injector is used to add more. Having the water level above the gauge leaves less than optimal room for steam to generate in and may overflow to the cylinders, potentially causing major damage. Having the water level below the gauge can be even more catastrophic. If the firebox is sufficiently hot and its top surface (known as “crown sheet”) protrudes above the water level, it can melt, causing the pressurized boiler to explode.

 Na poziom wody wpływa także jej rozszerzalność temperaturowa. Wraz ze wzrostem temperatury wody, jej poziom także będzie rosnąć, pomimo że woda nie jest dodawana do kotła.
 Poziom wody jest również zależny od nachylenia toru i od przelewania się wody wewnątrz kotła. Jeśli lokomotywa jedzie w dół, poziom będzie wydawał się niższy niż na płaskiej powierzchni i odwrotnie.

Poziom wody jest również zależny od nachylenia toru i od przelewania się wody wewnątrz kotła. Jeśli lokomotywa jedzie w dół, poziom będzie wydawał się niższy niż na płaskiej powierzchni i odwrotnie.

W sytuacji awaryjnej niskiego poziomu wody, jednym z ostatnich sposobów zapobiegania wybuchowi jest otwarcie inżektora, żeby dodać wody do kotła, i zrzut węgla z paleniska z nadzieją na obniżenie temperatury przed stopieniem sklepienia.
