I need to fill the radiator with water everyday but the temperature did not go up high and there is no leakage.

If there is no external leak it will be internal, I would still get the cooling system pressure tested as this will locate any small system leak, I would do this first.

To add to this. Using water instead of coolant will destroy your cooling system.
