Most pool guys have no idea how to set up solar panels.
The EASIEST way is to have a Y in the return line. One branch of the Y goes to the return(s) with nothing in between. The other goes to the solar and you can have 1 valve or 2 or 18, depending on your setup. I have 3 valves. The first is just an on/off cuttoff for all the solar panels, then there's ANOTHER Y off of that one that each has a valve for each set of panels (I have 2 sets of solar panels).
Can't get you a picture of it right now, though.
