From Dave Surrette of Surrette Battery, the king of industrial batteries:

"Use ONLY distilled water in your batteries to ensure long life. Spring water, filtered water and tap water will eventually destroy you battery(s) due to the minerals/chemicals in the water".

Also, keep your batteries well charged. Even one discharge below 80% capacity will shorten the life of your batteries.
