partially open for a very long time. After partially opened use of these valves for many years, is it at this point advisable to fully open the valves to reduce the wear and tear on the internal of the valvse? Or should I just continue using the valves partially opened? My home is 3 floors, and valves are in all 3 floor if how much the valves should be opened differs based on the floor. The main shut-off valve is a quarter turn valve on 1st floor and is fully open.Most of my indoor home water valves (under toilet, bathroom/kitchen sinks) are dial-turn type (turns 360 degrees) of valves like in the pic.
