Tee-ing off from existing parallel CH pipes

[statstastic]

Hi,

I want to add a radiator to my existing CH pipe work. My pipes are parallel in notches in the top of the joists under my floorboards. Lets say my pipes run north to south and I want to tee off to a new radiator on the left/west.

I can't visualise how to tee off the pipe on the right without it hitting the other pipe right next to it. How can I branch both pipes off to the left?

Thanks in advance.

Go down then across!

Thanks for replying.

Do I go down vertically, put a 90 degree bend on, then across or do I go down at 45 degrees and bend the branch pipe?

Sorry if this is really obvious, but I can't find any images or descriptions anywhere.

Face the tee down and use an elbow to go across. Better still is to bend the new branch pipe at 45 and then into the tee.
