Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Rochester

Case Study Summary

At Mr Clever Clean, we are dedicated to providing superior exterior cleaning services across Rochester. Recently, a homeowner approached us with a significant issue affecting their six solar panels. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were cross-contaminated, limiting their performance. This project summary details how we renewed their panels’ functionality using our innovative softwashing approach.

Issues Encountered

• Organic Contamination: The roof was covered in organic growth, which spread to the solar panels, blocking sunlight and hindering energy production.

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display indicated a substantial drop in energy production, potentially increasing their electricity bills during the current economic climate.

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

Solution

Upon being reached out to, we performed a detailed inspection to assess the extent of the contamination and determine the best cleaning strategy. We then provided the customer with a detailed proposal, which they accepted. Here’s a summary of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We examined the affected areas, confirming significant lichen growth. We explained our softwashing approach 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 set up our tools and began the cleaning on the appointed date.

3. Softwashing Application: Using our specialized soft wash equipment, we applied a tailored solution to the solar panels. The solution was designed to sanitize and break down the organic contaminants. We let it settle on the panels 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 water-fed pole with a soft brush 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 conducted a final rinse to ensure all residues were removed. 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 change was exceptional. The lichen was fully cleared from the panels, restoring them to their original condition and enhancing performance. The customer was very pleased with the higher energy output, which meant lower energy costs.
