    You can use the most common yet least favorite of mine and install were hot water vent would go, or you can us the unused 3/4 tapping at opposite end of supply.

    6' gets kinda hairy using with steam, if its a first floor rad and you can install a drip back to basement that would help deal with condensate. Rad would be pitched away from supply and drip down. Have seen it done with soft copper tube, also not my favorite way but effective
