Hello everyone and thank you for any advise in advance.

I have just purchased a home with a loop and Monoflo in the basement.

System is working great without issues.

While inspecting the Monoflo Tees recently, I noticed the last radiator on the loop, has the Monoflo valve installed backwards.

That radiator does get hot but slower than the rest. Naturally I would like to correct this, however I read that this might be done on purpose on another forum. So I am asking anyone familiar with this setup, are there any good reasons for one Tee to be on backwards, perhaps some trick of the trade I may be missing. I appreciate any advise on this.

Cheers everyone
 
Thanks for your reply John, it is not below the main line. So I will correct this.
You raised another question for me, there's only have one Monoflo Valve for each radiator ( on the loop in the basement) and the second is only a Tee, should there be 2 valves for each? Should those T's be replaced with valves? Thanks again.
 
Flipped the Monoflo T and now radiator is running fine. Thanks again.
