Was at a house for routine boiler fall check and saw this piping arrangement through out the basement. Took awhile before it dawned on me that they were using a choked down section of pipe between each tee to achieve what Monoflo tees typically are used for. Tee on right is supply, left side is return.

I ran into that on a job too.. But I didn't know anything about hydronics at the time either and somehow managed to get my hands on some monoflow tees and installed them properly.

1940's house by chance? Monoflow system tees don't all look the same. Some just use a orfice plate in a union between tees on a gravity system. There tons of info on these systems when energy was cheap, way before computers and manufacturing processes.
