Repipe rad to loop?

Thinking of repiping 2nd floor Richardson rad to loop on separate run. Rad doesn't heat unless valve to add-on 2nd rad(not a Richardson) attached to lat B is completely turned-off. The system is 2 pipe. Apparently supply pipe doesn't support attached edr. Good idea? Hope attached primitive drawing helps.

all attached as drawing, just change size of A pipe? Thanks for quick reply!0 -
Sorry
Should have also mentioned that the risers to each radiator should be 1" instead of 3/4".Retired and loving it.0 -
