Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Lowestoft

Introduction

At Mr Clever Clean, we excel at providing high-quality exterior cleaning services across Lowestoft. Recently, a customer approached us with a significant issue affecting their array of solar panels. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were compromised, drastically reducing their efficiency. This report details how we renewed their panels’ functionality using our advanced softwashing technique.

Issues Encountered

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

• 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 ongoing energy cost increases.

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

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 presented a proposal and free quotation, which they agreed to. 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 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 effective at removing organic buildup. 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 had sufficiently dwelled, we used a water-fed pole with a soft brush to safely brush off the buildup. This method left the panels spotless without any risk of damaging the solar cells.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: After wrapping up the cleaning, we performed a last wash to ensure all residues were removed. The customer was encouraged to check the panels, and they shared the increased efficiency results as displayed on their remote system.

Results

The improvement was remarkable. The lichen was eradicated from the panel surface, restoring them to their original condition and enhancing performance. The customer was very pleased with the higher energy output, which meant lower energy costs.
