What is Solar Panel Cleaning and why should you clean your Solar Panels?

Solar panel cleaning refers to the process of removing dirt, dust, debris, bird droppings, and other pollutants from the surface of solar panels. It involves gently washing the panels to maintain their efficiency and maximize their energy production capabilities.

Here are some reasons why cleaning your solar panels is important:

• Maximizing Energy Output: Solar panels generate electricity by converting sunlight into usable energy. When dirt, dust, or debris accumulate on the surface of the panels, they can obstruct the incoming sunlight, reducing the panels’ efficiency. Regular cleaning ensures that the maximum amount of sunlight reaches the solar cells, optimizing energy production and maximizing the return on investment.
• Preserving Long-Term Performance: Over time, the accumulation of dirt and grime can create a layer on the solar panels, affecting their performance and potentially leading to decreased output. By cleaning the panels regularly, you help maintain their long-term performance and ensure they continue to operate at their peak efficiency.
• Preventing Potential Damage: Bird droppings, tree sap, and other substances can be corrosive and may cause damage to the protective coatings or the glass surface of solar panels if left uncleaned. Regular cleaning helps prevent the buildup of these contaminants and minimizes the risk of damage, prolonging the lifespan of the panels.
• Extending Equipment Lifespan: Solar panels are designed to withstand outdoor conditions, but excessive dirt or debris can create a barrier that traps heat and causes panels to operate at higher temperatures. This can lead to reduced lifespan or even premature failure of the panels or their components. By keeping the panels clean, you help maintain their operating temperatures within acceptable ranges and extend their overall lifespan.
• Warranty Compliance: Some solar panel manufacturers require regular cleaning and maintenance as part of their warranty terms and conditions. Adhering to these requirements ensures that your warranty remains valid and protects you in case of any unforeseen issues with the panels.

It’s important to note that proper cleaning techniques and materials should be used when cleaning solar panels to avoid damaging the delicate surface or the electrical components. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer’s guidelines or seek professional assistance for the most appropriate and safe cleaning methods for your specific solar panel system.

From Enquiry to Job Completion

The Solar Panel Cleaning process typically involves several steps from the initial enquiry to the completion of the job. Here’s a general overview of how the process unfolds:

• Enquiry: The process begins when a potential client contacts us to inquire about our services. This can be done through various means such as phone calls, emails, or website contact forms. During the enquiry, we gather information about the client’s solar panel system, including the number of panels, their location, and any specific concerns or requirements they have.
• Assessment and Quotation: Based on the information provided during the enquiry, we assess the scope of the job. We may request additional details or schedule a visit to the location to inspect the solar panels in person. The purpose of the assessment is to evaluate the condition of the panels, identify any specific issues or dirt buildup, and determine the appropriate cleaning method and equipment required. Once the assessment is complete, we prepare a quotation outlining the cost and terms of the service. The quotation is then sent to the client for review.
• Agreement and Scheduling: If the client is satisfied with the quotation, they confirm their agreement and schedule the solar panel cleaning service. This typically involves selecting a convenient date and time for the cleaning to take place. It’s important to consider factors such as weather conditions, the availability of your team and the client’s preferences when scheduling the job.
• Preparations: Prior to the scheduled cleaning, we communicate any necessary preparations to the client. This may include instructions such as turning off the solar panel system before the cleaning, ensuring safe access to the panels and any other specific requirements for a smooth cleaning process. Clear communication helps both parties prepare adequately.
• Cleaning Process: On the agreed-upon date, our solar panel cleaning team arrives at the location with the necessary equipment, such as soft-bristle brushes, deionized water, and extension poles. They start by inspecting the panels for any potential issues or damage. Next, they gently brush away loose dirt, dust, and debris from the surface of the panels. They then use deionized water to rinse off any remaining dirt or residue, ensuring a streak-free finish. If needed, they may use eco-friendly cleaning solutions for tougher stains or buildup. Throughout the process, our team takes care to avoid damaging the panels or any associated wiring.
• Post-Cleaning Inspection: Once the cleaning is complete, our team inspects the solar panels to ensure they are clean and free of visible dirt or streaks. They may use microfiber cloths or squeegees to dry the panels if necessary. If any issues or damage are identified during the inspection, our team informs the client and provides recommendations for further action.
• Client Satisfaction and Payment: After the post-cleaning inspection, the client is given the opportunity to inspect the cleaned solar panels and provide feedback. If the client is satisfied with the results, they proceed to make the payment as per the agreed-upon terms. We offer various payment methods such as cash, cheque, credit card, or online funds transfer. We provide the client with a receipt or invoice for the services rendered.
• Job Completion and Follow-up: With the payment received, the solar panel cleaning job is considered complete. We may ask the client for a testimonial or review of the service to gather feedback. We may consider following up with the client after a few weeks or months to ensure the panels are still performing optimally and address any additional concerns or questions.
