Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Barnstaple

Case Study Summary

At Mr Clever Clean, we specialize in providing high-quality exterior cleaning services across Barnstaple. Recently, a homeowner approached us with a significant issue affecting their array of solar panels. Due to roof contamination from organic buildup, the solar panels were cross-contaminated, limiting their performance. This report details how we renewed their panels’ functionality using our advanced softwashing technique.

Customer Challenges

• Organic Contamination: The roof was contaminated with lichen, which spread to the solar panels, masking the solar 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 current economic climate.

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

Solution

Upon being called, we performed a detailed inspection to understand the contamination level and determine the best cleaning strategy. We then offered a clear plan and estimate, which they accepted. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We inspected both the panels and the roof, noting the lichen spread onto the panels. We outlined our cleaning method and why it’s ideal for solar panels. We also proposed cleaning the roof later to avoid recurrence.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: The customer opted to clean the panels initially, 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 tailored solution to the solar panels. The solution was effective at removing organic buildup. We left it to work on the surfaces 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 safely brush off the buildup. This method ensured thorough cleaning without any threat to the solar cells.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: After completing the cleaning process, we performed a last wash to make certain the panels were residue-free. The customer was encouraged to check the panels, and they revealed the improved output on their remote display as displayed on their remote system.

Transformation

The improvement was outstanding. The lichen was completely removed from the solar panels, returning them to pristine condition and enhancing performance. The customer was thrilled by the efficiency boost, which translated to significant savings on their electricity bill.
