The valves are very easy to open and close. I'm not really sure how to inspect for debris without having to rip out the supply lines. Thanks for the replies.

I have a garden tub in my master bath. When both the hot and cold water are turned on, the flow will begin. After a certain amount of time the water flow will stop. My wife will close the valves and wait a couple of minutes. She will reopen the valves and the water starts flowing again. Why...

I apologize for the confusion. I'll try to explain my situation better. My pressure switch and gage is between my 2nd tank and sediment filter. Currently, the gage isn't working. The gage indicator is "stuck" on 60. So, this is the gage I will need to replace. I don't think I have a check...
