Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Bishop's Stortford

Case Study Summary

At Mr Clever Clean, we excel at providing top-notch exterior cleaning services across Bishop’s Stortford. Recently, a customer approached us with a major problem affecting their six solar panels. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were compromised, limiting their performance. This case study details how we brought back peak efficiency using our specialized soft wash method.

Customer Challenges

• Organic Contamination: The roof was infested with lichen, which transferred to the panels, obscuring the cells and lowering their effectiveness.

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display showed a considerable decline in energy output, potentially increasing their electricity bills during the current economic climate.

• Need for Gentle Cleaning: The solar panels required a cleaning method that would not damage the delicate solar cells.

Our Approach

Upon being contacted, we conducted a thorough site survey to understand the contamination level and identify the ideal cleaning method. We then presented a proposal and free quotation, which they approved. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We examined the affected areas, identifying heavy lichen infestation on the panels. We outlined our cleaning method and why it’s ideal for solar panels. We also suggested a future roof cleaning to avoid recurrence.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: The customer chose to start with the solar panels, scheduling the roof cleaning for a later date. We set up our tools and arrived on the scheduled day.

3. Softwashing Application: Using our specialized soft wash equipment, we applied a tailored solution to the solar panels. The solution was designed to sanitize and break down the organic contaminants. We allowed it to dwell on the panels for at least half an hour to maximize its effect.

4. Gentle Cleaning with Water-Fed Pole: After the solution settled in, we used a water-fed pole with a soft brush to carefully clean the panels. This method left the panels spotless without any threat to the solar cells.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: After completing the cleaning process, we conducted a final rinse to eliminate any leftover solution. The customer was encouraged to check the panels, and they shared the increased efficiency results as displayed on their remote system.

Outcome

The improvement was exceptional. The lichen was fully cleared from the panels, bringing back their original look and boosting energy output. The customer was thrilled by the efficiency boost, which meant lower energy costs.
