Porsche Battery Question

I've a couple of questions for anyone who knows about Porsche branded batteries.

1. Is it a maintenance free battery or a low maintenance battery?

2. I've got a trickle charger on it because of lack of use but I'm still not convinced the battery is holding a charge. Should I at least open those ports on the top and add more distilled water if it's low?

This battery is probably three years old and the Houston heat is brutal on car batteries so it may be on its way out.

If so, I'm going aftermarket on the next one. I'd love to know the answers to these questions though in the meantime.
