Clean solar panels are critical to maintain efficiency and longevity of your panels and should be considered as a twice yearly maintenance for your property. Dirty panels not only reduce energy production, they can shorten the life of your panels from component failure caused by over heating.
The picture shows ‘hot spots’ in the solar panel (thermal image on the left) on a solar panel that is partially covered in dirt (image on the right).
Clearly, the panels are not designed to work this way and early component failure is highly likely. One of the biggest misconceptions Is that rain water is enough to clean your solar panels. This is not the case, what tends to happen is that rain water washes the dirt to the bottom of the panel where it collects, dries and then ends up overheating.
We provide a service which cleans the front face of your panel and the bottom edge of the lowest panels on your roof (often, it is not possible to clean other edges although we will always do our best). The cost of this service is £10 per panel.
We are currently taking bookings in the Surrey and Sussex area so please call 07834 483039 to make an appointment. Alternatively, visit the Contact Us page of this website and send us an email.
