Solar panel cleaning

What solar panel cleaning with us looks like

Solar panels near the coast collect salt, and panels under trees collect leaf litter, bird droppings and lichen. Rain doesn't wash these off. Dirty patches over a few cells can drag down a whole string of panels.

We clean panels from the ground or from roof anchors with a water-fed pole and purified water, which rinses clean without leaving minerals. We don't use detergents or high pressure, which can void panel warranties.

Excellent service! Nathan is punctual and nothing is a problem.

Step 04 of 04

Final rinse

A last rinse so the glass dries clear.

Early morning is best

Cleaning cool panels avoids thermal shock to the glass and lets the water work longer before it dries. We schedule solar cleaning early in the day.

Nathan just completed a pressure wash of our travertine pavers under our alfresco area, around the pool and the sundeck. What an absolutely fantastic job. Nathan is punctual, knowledgeable, polite and left our place neat and tidy. We will certainly be calling him back on a regular basis and can highly recommend him.

Nathan did a great job washing the external sides of our house. The weatherboard was dirty and had cobwebs. Nathan went above and beyond our expectations, the house was perfectly clean and all the cobwebs were gone.

How often should solar panels be cleaned?

Once a year for most homes, twice near the beach or under trees.

Does cleaning increase output?

It recovers output lost to dirt. How much depends on how dirty they were.

Do you use detergent?

No. Purified water and soft brushes only.

Can you clean panels on a steep roof?

Usually from the ground with a pole, or from roof anchors.

Will cleaning void my warranty?

Our method follows common manufacturer guidance: no pressure washers or harsh chemicals.

Can you fit bird proofing?

We clean only. A solar installer can fit mesh.

Roof cleaning

Every roof we do is a moss, mould and lichen treatment. No pressure on the tiles. The treatment keeps working with the rain and kills the growth off over about 12 months.
