Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Leeds

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we excel at providing superior exterior cleaning services across Leeds. Recently, a client approached us with a pressing concern affecting their array of solar panels. Due to roof contamination from organic buildup, the solar panels were heavily affected, limiting their performance. This case study details how we brought back peak efficiency using our innovative softwashing approach.

Obstacles Faced

• Organic Contamination: The roof was covered in organic growth, which cross-contaminated the panels, masking the solar cells and hindering energy production.

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display revealed a drop in efficiency, potentially costing them money due to increased electricity prices during the ongoing energy cost increases.

• Need for Gentle Cleaning: The solar panels needed careful handling to avoid damage.

Cleaning Process

Upon being called, we conducted a thorough site survey to assess the extent of the contamination and determine the best cleaning strategy. We then offered a clear plan and estimate, which they accepted. Here’s a summary of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We inspected both the panels and the roof, 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 decided to proceed with the solar panel cleaning first, scheduling the roof cleaning for a later date. We assembled our softwashing system and began the cleaning on the appointed date.

3. Softwashing Application: Using our state-of-the-art softwashing tools, we applied a tailored solution to the solar panels. The solution was designed to sanitize and break down the organic contaminants. We let it settle on the panels for at least half an hour to maximize its effect.

4. Gentle Cleaning with Water-Fed Pole: After the solution had sufficiently dwelled, we used a water-fed pole with a soft brush to carefully clean the panels. 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 conducted a final rinse to ensure all residues were removed. The customer was invited to inspect the solar panels, and they revealed the improved output on their remote display as displayed on their remote system.

Results

The transformation was remarkable. The lichen was eradicated from the panel surface, returning them to pristine condition and enhancing performance. The customer was delighted with the immediate increase in energy production, which translated to significant savings on their electricity bill.
