Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Wandsworth

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we specialize in providing high-quality exterior cleaning services across Wandsworth. Recently, a homeowner approached us with a major problem affecting their six solar panels. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were cross-contaminated, limiting their performance. This case study details how we restored their solar panels’ performance using our innovative softwashing approach.

Issues Encountered

• Organic Contamination: The roof was contaminated with lichen, which transferred to the panels, obscuring the cells and significantly reducing their efficiency.

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

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

Our Approach

Upon being reached out to, we performed a detailed inspection to understand the contamination level and develop an optimal cleaning plan. We then presented a proposal and free quotation, which they accepted. Here’s a detailed breakdown 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 how it would sanitize and clean the panels without causing damage. We also recommended a later roof clean to stop lichen regrowth.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: The customer decided to proceed with the solar panel cleaning first, 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 effective at removing organic buildup. We allowed it to dwell on the panels for at least half an hour to ensure effective treatment.

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 make certain the panels were residue-free. The customer was invited to inspect the solar panels, and they showed us the significant improvement in their energy production as displayed on their remote system.

Outcome

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