Do you clean solar panels?

Yes, panel cleaning is one of our regular services. We clean the exterior glass surface and surrounding frames only; we do not carry out electrical work or repairs.

Will cleaning damage my panels?

We use soft brushing and water rather than aggressive pressure or strong chemicals on the glass. If we think an array cannot be cleaned safely, we will say so.

Do you use filtered water?

Not yet. We rinse with plain water and then dry the panels by hand, which is what keeps streaks and water spots from forming as the glass dries.

How often should panels be cleaned?

It depends on your surroundings. Homes near trees, unsealed roads or heavy bird activity usually need cleaning more often than others.

Western Sydney roofs collect plenty of dust, pollen and bird mess, and solar panels are no exception. Anything sitting on the glass shades the cells underneath.

We clean the panel surface using soft brushing and water, avoiding harsh chemicals and high pressure on the glass and seals. Every panel is dried by hand afterwards, so no streaks or water spots are left on the glass.
