I have a project that I'm trying to figure out. I would like to install a solar thermal system for heating domestic water and a radiant floor loop. I would like the Solar domestic hot water to have priority followed by the solar radiant heat loop. I would like the geothermal to act as a backup source only running when the solar won't keep up. What is the best way of plumbing and controlling all the factors involved here? Thanks.
