When solar panels are able to capture more light, they are also able to create more power. However, if contaminants pile up on the panels, the panels cannot absorb as much light and their efficiency is decreased. The method we recommend to clean solar panels is soft washing, which utilizes low-pressure water and specialized cleaning solutions to remove dirt, stains, and other organic matter. This is a gentle procedure that avoids causing damage to your solar panels. It’s important to schedule regular solar panel cleaning, so your home can function to its full capacity.

How Solar Panel Cleaning Enhances Your Home’s Energy Efficiency

If your solar panels need cleaning, here are a few benefits of consulting our team about our solar panel cleaning services.

  • More Light Generates More Energy. Solar panels are exposed to many natural elements, including rain, bird droppings, and other dirt and pollutants. All of this grime can block sunlight from hitting the panels. Washing away this matter can help panels achieve optimal performance, helping your home stay powered with sustainable energy and helping you reduce your environmental footprint.
  • Clean Panels Last Longer. Keeping your solar panels squeaky clean can extend their lifespan. Scheduling routine solar panel cleaning can reduce the chances of grime staining or wearing down solar panels, allowing your home to continue capturing energy efficiently.
  • Saves Your Wallet from High Electricity Bills. When there are obstacles in the way of sunlight reaching solar panels, it can lead to high electric bills due to low energy production. Ensuring that natural substances are removed and streaks and strains are cleared can help improve energy capture.
