I'd contact the manufacturer and ask them direct.
Ive heard that removing those plugs will invalidate your warranty as these are considered sealed batteries,but I guess warranty is good only for a year or so!?
Imo adding water wont help since these plates are packed so tight in the Glass Mat that water will not penetrate into it anyways.
There is a tape covering the plugs which states "Removal voids warranty". Irrelevant now since warranty period ended long ago.
Re your comment on adding water that will not penetrate - my gut tells me you are probably right.
