SolarTech installed my solar panels over 10 years ago now, and they are still performing as strong as ever! I can’t recommend SolarTech high enough as they have helped me with any issues or questions I’ve had with my solar over the years.

I was contemplating installing solar system at my house for several months. When one of my friends recommended Ali, I called him up just to enquire and get some estimates. After my discussion with Ali, I was convinced that SolarTech was the right people to go to for installing my solar system. They are very professional, detail-oriented, and well-organized. I was happy with their pricing, the quality of their work, and the process.

Regular solar panel cleaning is essential because dust, dirt, pollen, bird droppings, and other debris can reduce energy output by up to 25%. Clean panels maximize sunlight absorption and energy production. Most solar panel owners see a noticeable improvement in system performance after professional cleaning, particularly in areas with minimal rainfall or high pollen counts.
Most residential solar systems benefit from cleaning 2–4 times per year, depending on your local environment. Panels in dusty areas, near trees, or in regions with little rainfall may require more frequent cleaning. Commercial installations often follow a quarterly maintenance schedule to maintain optimal efficiency. Monitoring your system’s performance can help determine the ideal cleaning frequency for your specific situation.
Professional solar panel cleaning typically includes inspection of the entire system, removal of debris, gentle cleaning with specialized equipment and deionized water (which leaves no mineral residue), and a performance check after cleaning. Technicians use proper safety equipment and cleaning tools designed specifically for solar panels to prevent damage to the delicate surfaces. The process is typically completed in a few hours depending on system size.
While DIY cleaning is possible for ground-mounted or easily accessible roof systems, professional cleaning is recommended for several reasons: safety concerns with roof access, risk of damaging expensive panels with improper cleaning methods, and ensuring thorough cleaning with specialized equipment. If attempting DIY cleaning, never use abrasive materials, harsh chemicals, or pressure washers, as these can damage the panels’ protective surface.
Regular professional cleaning helps extend solar panel lifespan by preventing long-term damage from debris buildup. Accumulated dirt can lead to hot spots and microcracks over time, permanently reducing panel efficiency. Clean panels also operate at lower temperatures, which improves performance and longevity. Most manufacturers recommend regular cleaning as part of system maintenance to maintain warranty coverage and maximize the system’s expected 25+ year lifespan.
