Solar Panel Cleaning

BENEFITS

•  Your solar panels may require regular cleaning so they produce as much clean energy as possible. Doing so decreases your reliance on expensive grid electricity, allowing you to save more money and generate fewer greenhouse gases.  According to a research paper conducted by the University of Malaga, prolonged periods without rain led to dust buildup, which reduced daily solar output among PV systems by 20%. These findings create a fairly strong case for regular solar panel cleaning. Having a proper solar panel cleaning can:  
• Maximize a PV system’s power output
• Increase utility bill savings for owners
• Deliver measurable carbon savings

WHAT CAN BE CLEAN FROM SOLAR PANELS

• Dirt and Dust: Accumulated over time, especially in dry or windy environments.
• Bird Droppings: These can obstruct sunlight and reduce the panel's effectiveness.
• Leaves and Debris: Especially relevant for ground-mounted panels near trees or other vegetation.
• Algae and Moss: In humid environments or places with heavy rainfall, algae or moss may grow on the panels.
• Airborne Pollutants: Like pollen, soot, and other fine particles that can settle on the panel surfaces.
• Mineral Deposits: From hard water or if the panels are located near coastal areas, salt deposits may form.
• Stains and Residues: Occasionally, other residues or stains might form depending on the local environment.

Cleaning your solar panels regularly is vital for preserving their efficiency and lifespan. Dust, dirt, and other debris should not be left to accumulate, as they can obscure sunlight and degrade the panel's surface over time. If neglected, these contaminants can compromise the panel's performance, leading to reduced energy output. Ultimately, neglect can result in the need for premature replacements or repairs, incurring unnecessary costs. Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and a longer life for your solar panels.

EQUIPMENT

•  The water-fed pole system is highly favored for cleaning solar panels due to its efficiency.  Additionally, its design facilitates quick cleaning of extensive solar arrays without the constant need to move equipment. What sets this system apart is its use of purified, deionized water, ensuring a spotless and residue-free finish on the panels. This water, when paired with the soft brush attachments, gently agitates and removes dirt, ensuring the panels' surfaces aren't scratched or damaged. Furthermore, its eco-friendly approach, which involves forgoing detergents or harsh chemicals, makes it a green cleaning method that's gentle on both the panels and the environment. 

INSURANCE: It's important when you are choosing a contractor to do your cleaning that they are fully insured. At End Result Services we are happy to provide you with a Certificate of Insurance, just ask!
