Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Barrow-in-Furness

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we are dedicated to providing top-notch exterior cleaning services across Barrow-in-Furness. Recently, a client approached us with a significant issue affecting their array of solar panels. Due to organic contamination on their roof, the solar panels were heavily affected, lowering energy output. This report details how we restored their solar panels’ performance using our advanced softwashing technique.

Issues Encountered

• Organic Contamination: The roof was contaminated with lichen, which cross-contaminated the panels, blocking sunlight and significantly reducing their efficiency.

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display indicated a substantial drop in energy production, potentially leading to higher energy expenses during the current economic climate.

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

Cleaning Process

Upon being reached out to, we conducted a thorough site survey to understand the contamination level and develop an optimal cleaning plan. We then offered a clear plan and estimate, which they accepted. Here’s a step-by-step overview of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We examined the affected areas, identifying heavy lichen infestation on the panels. We outlined our cleaning method and its gentle effectiveness. We also recommended a later roof clean to prevent further cross-contamination.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: The customer opted to clean the panels initially, scheduling the roof cleaning for a later date. We set up our tools and began the cleaning on the appointed date.

3. Softwashing Application: Using our state-of-the-art softwashing tools, we applied a targeted wash agent to the solar panels. The solution was designed to sanitize and break down the organic contaminants. 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 had sufficiently dwelled, we used a gentle-bristled pole to carefully clean the panels. This method left the panels spotless 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 ensure all residues were removed. 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.

Results

The change was remarkable. The lichen was eradicated from the panel surface, bringing back their original look and enhancing performance. The customer was delighted with the immediate increase in energy production, which translated to significant savings on their electricity bill.
