A good check to see if it would make sense to add a second vent. Start with cold pipes. Start the boiler and when the steam starts moving out of the boiler time how long it takes to get steam to the vent. Do the same thing with no vent in the pipe. If it gets there considerably faster it can use a second vent on a tee.
