Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Grimsby

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we specialize in providing top-notch exterior cleaning services across Grimsby. Recently, a client approached us with a major problem affecting their six solar panels. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were compromised, drastically reducing their efficiency. This case study details how we renewed their panels’ functionality using our innovative softwashing approach.

Obstacles Faced

• Organic Contamination: The roof was covered in organic growth, 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 ongoing energy cost increases.

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

Our Approach

Upon being contacted, we conducted a thorough site survey to understand the contamination level and develop an optimal cleaning plan. We then provided the customer with a detailed proposal, which they approved. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We evaluated the condition of the solar panels and the roof, confirming significant lichen growth. We outlined our cleaning method and how it would sanitize and clean the panels without causing damage. We also suggested a future roof cleaning to prevent further cross-contamination.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: The customer decided to proceed with the solar panel cleaning first, scheduling the roof cleaning for a later date. We assembled our softwashing system and arrived on the scheduled day.

3. Softwashing Application: Using our specialized soft wash equipment, 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 ensure effective treatment.

4. Gentle Cleaning with Water-Fed Pole: After the solution had sufficiently dwelled, we used a gentle-bristled pole to gently remove the contaminants. This method ensured thorough cleaning without any chance of harming the panel surface.

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 asked to review the work, and they showed us the significant improvement in their energy production as displayed on their remote system.

Transformation

The change was remarkable. The lichen was eradicated from the panel surface, restoring them to their original condition and enhancing performance. The customer was thrilled by the efficiency boost, which helped offset rising energy expenses.
