Trying to keep up w/ Chem Geek

Ok,
I've attached a pic of my return setup. To the left of the red ball-valve handle, you'll see a Tee--the part going up is the return to the pool, the part going right to the ball valve is for the solar panels. To the right of that you'll see another tee and on each leg is a sluice valve, with the blue knobs.

Each sluice valve is for a solar panel group (my solar panels are 2'x4' and I have about 32 of them). I can open each group just a crack, depending on whether my pump is on low speed or full speed. At full speed I open each group 1 and 1/4 turn. At low speed I open them all the way.

Each group of solar panels has its own return at the far end of the pool.

Very, very simple. Hope this helps!
