A solar company just installed for me a 30 Tube Solar Hot Water system and connected it to my desuperheater lines as shown in pic. I'm wondering what is the best way to tie in the desuperheater lines to the solar hot water preheat tank. I sketched a picture. Any thoughts appreciated.

Looks like DSH in and out share the same line entering the white tank from the side...that doesn't seem promising.

I'm thinking a preheat tank for the desuperheater lines and then a preheat tank for the solar. Then on to the propane water heater for a top up.
