We Care About Your Solar Panels
We Care About Your Solar Panels
A Clean and Health Check-Up (C&HC) is advised every two years, or annually if your property is close to the beach. In addition to cleaning the panels, we conduct a thorough inspection of all other components and provide a comprehensive report.
Whether you have a Solar PV (electricity) System or a Solar Hot Water System, our skilled and accredited teams are ready to take care of your system. Don’t hesitate—schedule your C&HC today and enjoy peace of mind!
Solar Panels consist of many smaller cells. Even if some of the cells are covered with dust or bird droppings etc, the efficiency of the system will drop down. In some cases, the impact can be worsened.
Did you know that when solar panels are placed on rooftops with a gradual slope, the module frames may collect rainwater and create a small pool? Unfortunately, when the water evaporates, it can leave behind dust and debris which causes unwanted shade, ultimately reducing the energy production from the solar cells.

So, why clean solar panels?
So, why clean solar panels?
When light penetrates the surface of solar cells, solar panels are able to generate power.
The greater the amount of light that falls on the panel, the higher the electricity production it can achieve.
We’ve been keeping an eye on the amazing benefits that the C&HC brings. It’s incredible to see the difference it can make to efficiency! We’ve seen sizeable increases of up to 30% on agricultural sites, up to 60% on industrial and commercial sites, and even up to 50% to 60% on residential arrays. It’s great to know that something as simple as a regular C&HC can have such a big impact!

Let us explain why using your car windscreen as an example.
If you didn’t clean your car windscreen for six months, how much visibility would you lose?
Quite a lot, right?
The same happens to your solar panels. Even if it rains, the rainwater contains dust particles that settle on the surface after the rainwater evaporates. Just like how you clean your windscreen with wipers, cleaning your solar panels is very important to ensure they are working at their best.
The same goes with Solar Hot Water Collector-Panels and Evacuated Tubes

When it comes to flat plate collector panels, the water flows through pipes that are protected by a thick glass from the top. These panels need to be cleaned from the outside and require some careful attention to the other connections. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Our Clean and Health Check process includes servicing the full system including checking your Hot Water Storage Tank, so your Solar Hot Water System stays up and running smoothly.
