Awesome ,some one will live with it ,happy it ain’t me . I guess be happy the sheet rock hides the rest of there handy work most likely just as well thought out ,planned and executed as the placement and running of the pex and the manifold placement .
Can’t really say much more but as things go ,nothing I see even makes me bat an eye it’s just a well isn’t that special and leave it at that and move on . It’s better that way then to rock the boat as long as it works isn’t that what really matters . These days I think quality and craftmanship of the work really only matters in what people see in there face not the stuff behind doors that only matters when it don’t work plain and simple .
Get the blinders like an Amish horse .

A half a turn. All he had to do was rotate the manifolds counter clockwise a half a turn......0

I’ll bet those horizontal pipes sag when they’re hot.8.33 lbs./gal. x 60 min./hr. x 20°ΔT = 10,000 BTU's/hour

Well, I believe some of the manufacturers don't want there manifolds installed upside down, so if you have actuators installed, they don't get potentially leaked on. If that was me though, I would probably have used some of the old Heat Link track and just made big loops in the piping instead of all those fittings.

At least they used Uponor expansion fittings. Those are closest to actual .5" ID.0
