That's great. Around here, they tend to last from 3 to 10 years in my experience. The 3 year system was someone with a fairly large (32kwhr) battery bank who drove it very hard; they'd cycle about 10 kwhr through it 3-5 days a week, and it handled generator support in the summer to allow them to run some fairly large A/C's from a 6kW generator.
After the first bank failed I started badgering them about battery maintenance. They'd check levels (all 72 cells) every Friday and wipe down the bank afterwards. Those lasted 4 years.
