diverter tee rad now working

Finally got this basement rad working,but I had to use my final option.I cut a hole in the cieling where we thought the tee,s were located and found there was only 1 monoflow tee on the return from the rad and a reg. tee on the supply side.The hole system is piped this way.The tees were also only spaced apart by a 3" nipple.My plan was to put a valve between the to tee's ,but the was now going to be a messy job having to pipe the tee's wider apat to fit a vave.The homeowner suggest a booster pump on the rad and I thought at this stage it would be the easiest fix.So i installed a up15-58 on low speed and now we have flow.Thanks to all you guys i learned alot about diverter tee systems.
