Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Elgin

Introduction

At Mr Clever Clean, we excel at providing superior exterior cleaning services across Elgin. Recently, a client approached us with a pressing concern affecting their home’s solar panel system. Due to roof contamination from organic buildup, the solar panels were compromised, limiting their performance. This case study details how we renewed their panels’ functionality using our specialized soft wash method.

Obstacles Faced

• Organic Contamination: The roof was contaminated with lichen, which transferred to the panels, blocking sunlight 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 needed careful handling to avoid damage.

Cleaning Process

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

1. Initial Site Survey: We evaluated the condition of the solar panels and the roof, identifying heavy lichen infestation on the panels. We discussed our softwashing technique with the customer 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 state-of-the-art softwashing tools, we applied a targeted wash agent 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 settled in, we used a water-fed pole with a soft brush to gently remove the contaminants. 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 conducted a final rinse to eliminate any leftover solution. The customer was invited to inspect the solar panels, and they shared the increased efficiency results as displayed on their remote system.

Transformation

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