Solar panel cleaning involves removing dirt, dust, bird droppings, leaves, and other debris from the surface of the panels to maintain optimal performance. Clean panels allow more sunlight to reach the solar cells, maximizing energy production. Regular cleaning is essential to ensure peak efficiency, extend the lifespan of the panels, and protect your investment in solar energy systems.
Solar Panel Cleaning
Typically done every 6 months to a year, depending on location and environmental conditions like dust, pollution, or nearby trees. Our simple and effective process keeps solar panels working efficiently, saving you money on energy in the long run!
Frequency
.
Our professionals use non-slip footwear and safety equipment when cleaning panels on roofs.
We avoid high-pressure washers as they can damage the panels or dislodge wiring
We avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive tools to prevent surface damage.
Safety Considerations
Our Solar Panel Cleaning Process
Preparation.
We turn off the solar panel system to ensure safety during cleaning.
Gather Supplies
We use a water-fed pole with nylon bristle brush, paired with our pure water systems to avoid streaking and mineral buildups.
For stubborn spots, we may use mild soap or our eco-friendly solar panel cleaning solutions .
Remove Loose Debris
Use a soft brush or a blower to gently remove loose leaves, dust, or other debris from the surface.
Scrub The Panels:
Starting from top to bottom, using our pure water systems and water fed poles. We scrub any dust and dirt from the surface. Making sure we scrub every single inch of the panel thoroughly.
Rinse:
After every scrub, we thoroughly rinse each panel before moving on to the next. Our pure water system ensures a streak-free finish, making the cleaning process more efficient and eliminating the need for chemicals.
Drying:
We let nature do all the drying for us!
Inspect the Panels
Once clean, we go over our work and check for any cracks, damage, or spots we may have missed. An inspection for any damages is also done before any work is to take place.
