...is save enough out of the budget to put in all the cutoff valves and stuff you would need for solar, so if you ever have money to do solar, you don't need to have the plumber come back again.

Also be sure if you have a tank to get a mixer valve, even if they assure you that the tank is "adjustable" -- you have to keep that tank hot to avoid the possibility of an infection with legionella, so you keep it hot and then mix it down. Some states even require it by law.
