Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Kingstanding

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we are dedicated to providing superior exterior cleaning services across Kingstanding. Recently, a customer approached us with a pressing concern affecting their array of solar panels. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were heavily affected, drastically reducing their efficiency. This case study details how we brought back peak efficiency using our innovative softwashing approach.

Issues Encountered

• Organic Contamination: The roof was infested with lichen, which cross-contaminated the panels, blocking sunlight and lowering their effectiveness.

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

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

Cleaning Process

Upon being contacted, we conducted a thorough site survey to understand the contamination level and determine the best cleaning strategy. We then offered a clear plan and estimate, which they agreed to. Here’s a step-by-step overview of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We evaluated the condition of the solar panels and the roof, confirming significant lichen growth. We outlined our cleaning method and its gentle effectiveness. We also proposed cleaning the roof later to stop lichen regrowth.

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

3. Softwashing Application: Using our specialized soft wash equipment, we applied a specialized cleaning solution to the solar panels. The solution was formulated for thorough and safe cleaning. We left it to work on the surfaces 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 gently remove the contaminants. This method ensured thorough cleaning without any threat to the solar cells.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: After wrapping up the cleaning, we conducted a final rinse to eliminate any leftover solution. 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.

Outcome

The transformation was outstanding. The lichen was fully cleared from the panels, bringing back their original look and greatly improving their efficiency. The customer was thrilled by the efficiency boost, which translated to significant savings on their electricity bill.
