Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Ilford

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we are dedicated to providing superior exterior cleaning services across Ilford. Recently, a customer approached us with a significant issue affecting their array of solar panels. Due to roof contamination from organic buildup, the solar panels were cross-contaminated, drastically reducing their efficiency. This case study details how we restored their solar panels’ performance using our advanced softwashing technique.

Issues Encountered

• Organic Contamination: The roof was infested with lichen, which transferred to the panels, blocking sunlight and hindering energy production.

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display indicated a substantial drop in energy production, potentially increasing their electricity bills during the ongoing energy cost increases.

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

Solution

Upon being called, we conducted a thorough site survey to evaluate the situation and determine the best cleaning strategy. We then provided the customer with a detailed proposal, which they agreed to. Here’s a step-by-step overview of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We inspected both the panels and the roof, identifying heavy lichen infestation on the panels. We discussed our softwashing technique with the customer and how it would sanitize and clean the panels without causing damage. We also proposed cleaning the roof later to prevent further cross-contamination.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: The customer opted to clean the panels initially, scheduling the roof cleaning for a later date. We prepared our softwashing equipment and started work as planned.

3. Softwashing Application: Using our state-of-the-art softwashing tools, we applied a specialized cleaning solution to the solar panels. The solution was formulated for thorough and safe cleaning. We allowed it to dwell on the panels for at least 30+ minutes to ensure effective treatment.

4. Gentle Cleaning with Water-Fed Pole: After the solution had sufficiently dwelled, we used a gentle-bristled pole to safely brush off the buildup. This method left the panels spotless without any chance of harming the panel surface.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: After wrapping up the cleaning, we did a thorough rinse to ensure all residues were removed. The customer was encouraged to check the panels, and they showed us the significant improvement in their energy production as displayed on their remote system.

Transformation

The improvement was exceptional. The lichen was fully cleared from the panels, bringing back their original look and greatly improving their efficiency. The customer was delighted with the immediate increase in energy production, which translated to significant savings on their electricity bill.
