Dirty panels make less power. Simple as that.
Dust from the roads and industry, salt off the harbour and bird droppings all cut solar output. We clean panels with purified water and soft brushes, no chemicals and no pressure, so there is nothing left behind to streak or shade a cell.
Sound familiar?
- Reduced solar output
- Bird droppings shading cells
- Dust and salt film
Exactly what you get.

01
Inspect the array
We check for damage and how the panels are mounted before anyone goes near them.
02
Soft brush and pure water
Purified water leaves no mineral spots. A soft brush lifts the grime without scratching the glass.
03
Rinse and check
Panels are rinsed spot-free and we note anything that a solar installer should look at.
What to expect when we drive off.
- Clean, streak-free panels
- Output back to where it should be for the conditions

Solar Panel Cleaning questions
How much difference does it make?
It depends how dirty they were. Heavily soiled panels commonly lose 10 to 25 percent of their output. Your inverter app will show the change.
Can I do it myself with the hose?
Tap water leaves mineral spots and a hose does not shift bird mess. Getting on the roof is also the risky part, which is why people call us.
