Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Irlam

Case Study Summary

At Mr Clever Clean, we specialize in providing high-quality exterior cleaning services across Irlam. Recently, a homeowner approached us with a pressing concern affecting their array of solar panels. Due to organic contamination on their roof, the solar panels were heavily affected, lowering energy output. This case study details how we restored their solar panels’ performance using our innovative softwashing approach.

Customer Challenges

• Organic Contamination: The roof was contaminated with lichen, which spread to the solar panels, masking the solar cells and lowering their effectiveness.

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display indicated a substantial drop in energy production, potentially costing them money due to increased electricity prices during the cost of living crisis.

• Need for Gentle Cleaning: The solar panels needed a gentle yet effective cleaning method.

Cleaning Process

Upon being called, we conducted a thorough site survey to assess the extent of the contamination and identify the ideal cleaning method. We then presented a proposal and free quotation, which they agreed to. Here’s a summary of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We evaluated the condition of the solar panels and the roof, confirming significant lichen growth. We explained our softwashing approach and how it would sanitize and clean the panels without causing damage. We also recommended a later roof clean to prevent further cross-contamination.

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

3. Softwashing Application: Using our advanced softwashing system, we applied a tailored solution to the solar panels. The solution was effective at removing organic buildup. We let it settle on the panels for at least 30 minutes to fully treat the contamination.

4. Gentle Cleaning with Water-Fed Pole: After the solution was left to work, we used a water-fed pole with a soft brush 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 finishing the project, we did a thorough rinse to make certain the panels were residue-free. The customer was encouraged to check the panels, and they shared the increased efficiency results as displayed on their remote system.

Outcome

The transformation was remarkable. The lichen was fully cleared from the panels, bringing back their original look and enhancing performance. The customer was delighted with the immediate increase in energy production, which meant lower energy costs.
