I see. What if you drill a hole at a high water level and drain excess water?

Or use a toilet water tank kind of mechanism so that it turns off the thing manually through a switch if the water level is too high?

That mechanism is called a float valve. They’re really handy in all kinds of situations where you want something to fill, but not too much.
