There are a few things that go along with maintaining water levels. The connections need to be tight and clean. Also make sure that the negative cable connection to the TT's frame is tight and clean. Dirty/loose connections alter the charge/discharge status and can cause over/under charging.
Watching battery voltage is another priority. The 12VDC battery is fully charged at 12.6VDC and is considered fully discharged at 10.5VDC, if the voltage drops below the 12.0VDC mark (50% rule) it shortens the battery life. If the battery is fully discharged to 0 volts, there is a good chance that you will never fully recover from it and it may not hold a charge any longer.
If the TT is in storage, pull the main fuse to disconnect it from the TT so it does not drain the battery. If you do not plan to use the TT for an extended period of time, I would recommend putting it on a smart charger.
As a battery ages (or has some drops below 12.0VDC) the Ah of the battery drops. The battery looks good, it shows a 13.2VDC float voltage, without a load on it may stay at 12.6 or 12.8 for a long time, but will not last long once you put a load on it.
I have 2 Interstate 85Ah batteries that came with the TT 5 years ago. They are on a smart charger and remain at 12.8VDC for months without the charger. Sounds like they are as good as new. I decide to test them using a Dump load resistor from a wind generator and when the voltage hit 10.5 VDC I calculated the AH... at 41Ah but the usable Ah is 50% of that or about 20Ah, which means that there would not be enough to watch much Tv or expect the heater to last a night.

"The Results Are in". There is a lot of GOOD battery information in our RVing with SOLAR social group.
If you do not have a Digital Voltage Display, I would recommend getting one that will help you keep an eye on the battery voltage level.
It has been 5 years and my (2) Trojan T145 (260Ah) batteries are still going strong, yes they are showing signs of getting old so I figure maybe another year before replacing them.
Hope this helps
