The Cleaning Process
The company uses a multi-step process to ensure thorough and safe cleaning of your solar panels:
1. Assessment
Our cleaning crew will begin by assessing the condition of each panel to be cleaned and identifying how to clean specific areas that may require extra attention, such as heavy dirt accumulation or shading from nearby trees (often where those issues with bird droppings come from).
2. Pre-Cleaning Preparation
Any loose debris on the panels is brushed or blown off using soft brushes or air compressors to avoid scratching the panel surfaces.
3. Cleaning Solution Application
An eco-friendly, non-abrasive cleaning solution is applied to the panels using specialized equipment that ensures even coverage without excess water use.
4. Gentle Scrubbing
For more stubborn dirt and grime, a gentle scrubbing with soft brushes is used to dislodge the particles without damaging the sensitive panel surface.
5. Rinse
Panels are then thoroughly rinsed with deionized water, which prevents mineral deposits from forming, ensuring a streak-free finish.
6. Drying
A final air-drying process is employed to ensure that no water spots are left behind, leaving your panels sparkling clean.
7. Post-Cleaning Inspection
Technicians conduct a thorough inspection of the panels to ensure they are free of any remaining dirt or streaks and that there are no visible signs of damage. The entire process is completed with the utmost care.
