Cleaning solar panels is essential to sustaining maximum energy output. The effectiveness of your panels might be decreased by dirt and grime, so routine cleaning keeps them operating at their best.

For solar panels to operate at their best, regular cleaning is recommended. The quantity of dust, bird activity, and your location all affect how often they occur.

All solar panels are bought and installed with the knowledge that they will require a substantial initial expenditure, but the long-term benefits make the choice worthwhile! That seemingly wise financial choice, though, can turn out to be a time and money waster. The inclement weather, filth, trash, and other impurities can quickly reduce the effectiveness of your solar panels. Because of this, routine cleaning is essential and a wiser choice that might help you save hundreds of additional dollars after your installation! Regular solar panel cleaning is not only advised by the manufacturer, but it also makes sense when you compare the costs of upkeep to the harm caused by negligence.

In actuality, the majority of solar panel manufacturers stipulate that maintaining the warranty’s validity and activity requires routine cleaning. Maintaining your manufacturer’s guarantee has been shown to require routine cleaning, but there are other crucial cleaning techniques. Aside from causing damage to your solar panels, harsh chemicals (such acids or degreasers) also leave behind a residue that draws additional dirt. They may also significantly affect the likelihood of your solar panel warranty being voided! You may get a cleaning that complies with the conditions of your solar panel’s warranty without using chemicals by using our All One Solar Shine service. We are able to increase efficiency thanks to our safe and clean method, which includes soft bristle brushes, de-ionized water free of chemicals, and safe handling.

A common question is whether rain is sufficient to clean solar panels. Sure, the rain will give any loose dust or dirt a gentle rinse, but it won’t get rid of baked-on debris after months or even years of solar neglect! How would your car’s windshield appear after being neglected for six to twelve months and just having rainwater “clean” it, just to give you a better sense and perspective? I am aware that you won’t be able to see the road clearly, block lights, or any of the other benefits that come with having a windshield on a car. Your solar panel is an illustration of this as well. The glass layer of each panel captures UV photons from the sun, however if debris, pollen, leaves, or bird droppings are obstructing those solar Consequently, the panels’ capacity to function and produce energy—what they were intended to do—is subsequently lost. Two outcomes of dirty panels are reduced energy production and solar cell degradation. This damage will shorten the panels’ lifespan, which will result in subpar performance and an expensive investment that will not pay for itself. Even days after it has rained, customers frequently report a 15-20% increase in power output following solar panel cleaning. Please view the before and after photos in our gallery.

De-ionized water is simply pure filtered distilled water, to make things incredibly easy for you. We always ensure that you obtain high-quality water to complete the task at hand without suffering any negative effects by keeping two DI filters in our trucks. Because ordinary water contains calcium and other heavy minerals, using non-de-ionized water will leave streaks, leave wet spots, and damage your panels. Utilizing de-ionized water also helps us to maintain our 100% chemical-free and environmentally friendly service in compliance with your warranty requirements. The largest advantage, aside from maintaining your manufacturer’s guarantee, is the spot-free surface, which offers every solar panel its optimum performance capability, resulting in effective solar energy generation.

The short answer is, of course, that you can clean them yourself, but before you do this yourself, let’s stand back and think about these things: 1. Are you qualified to climb onto your roof using the right tools and safety gear? 2. Are you employing the right equipment to complete the task quickly? Regular tap water from the hose may cause damaging hard water stains on the panels, which ultimately prevent UV light from entering the solar cells and reduce energy production. Selecting the incorrect bush might lead to scratches or significant damage to the panels’ outer glass layer, increasing the expense of repairs. Finally, considering the use of a pressure washer will only cause loose wires or can also result in glass damage, nullifying your warranty and forcing you to pay for more needless, expensive repairs. 3. Time: Do you wish to allot the appropriate amount of time in your day to complete the task at hand, or have you allowed yourself enough time? Since time is of the essence, allow All One Solar Shine to devote that time to providing you with the superior service and outcomes you deserve.
