Installing the batteries is not a difficult task, you can refer to your user manual for the method if unsure, once they have been fitted your system will fully charge them, despite the fact they will come out to you almost fully charged it will still need to complete this, of course it will follow that during this short interim period your system will not be able to offer you its full runtime protection until it has finished this task. While you might just want to install and go, if you can, it may be better to start without load until it has completed its first charge; this will give the system a chance to properly reset to the new batteries.
Fitted in a UPS, you could expect a battery lifespan of 2-5 years; however, how it's used over time will determine this. One thing to make sure is that the vents have access to cool air; quite often they are tucked under desks or other such warm places with little ventilation. The batteries will get hot that's normal, but the hotter they are the shorter their lifespan will be, to get a long battery life you should try to keep the load below 40%, if you have added more devices over time this may have crept up, its capable much more but the pay off will be battery life so it's a balancing act.
These batteries will require no general maintenance whatsoever. This, of course, does not include charging. They are AGM and VRLA; they are also non-hazardous, so they are safe to use in busy data centres or the home office. They can be used in rack-mountable or tower systems, as they will not leak if mounted on the side.
