My “plumber” used PEX , which is fine but I got the plastic 90 turns and he promptly broke two of the first three and instead used the insert type 90 degree plastic fittings, I later finished the job and was able to use the bending type with a little patience, I have covered most of the walls but some are still accessible, so I am wondering if I should try to change the few 90s that are left, for example, the line to washer has two 90s just in the 8 feet or so between the machine and the manifold, all half inch. I see that it is more common now to use an expansion tool which I assume is done to keep the inside dimension the same, how much of a problem will this be, if any?
