I would try the separate transformer trick, as suggested by others.
Vid-Aire made one with a plug that selected between series or parallel filament strings, I dont think it isolated.

I had a 1958 Motorola series-heater set with an intermittent H-K short in its 21CBP4. The short made it go washed-out negative with retrace lines.
After I isolated the CRT filament with a perma-power brightner, video just got a bit smeary when it shorted.
