Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Sunderland

Project Overview

At Mr Clever Clean, we excel at providing top-notch exterior cleaning services across Sunderland. Recently, a customer approached us with a pressing concern affecting their home’s solar panel system. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were heavily affected, drastically reducing their efficiency. This project summary details how we restored their solar panels’ performance using our innovative softwashing approach.

Obstacles Faced

• Organic Contamination: The roof was infested with lichen, which cross-contaminated the panels, obscuring the cells and hindering energy production.

• 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 required a cleaning method that would not damage the delicate solar cells.

Our Approach

Upon being called, we carried out a comprehensive assessment to assess the extent of the contamination and identify the ideal cleaning method. We then presented a proposal and free quotation, which they approved. Here’s a summary of our process:

1. Initial Site Survey: We evaluated the condition of the solar 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 suggested a future roof cleaning to avoid recurrence.

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

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 let it settle on the panels for at least 30 minutes to maximize its effect.

4. Gentle Cleaning with Water-Fed Pole: After the solution settled in, we used a gentle-bristled pole 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 wrapping up the cleaning, we conducted a final rinse to make certain the panels were residue-free. The customer was invited to inspect the solar panels, and they shared the increased efficiency results as displayed on their remote system.

Outcome

The improvement was exceptional. The lichen was eradicated from the panel surface, returning them to pristine condition and enhancing performance. The customer was very pleased with the higher energy output, which helped offset rising energy expenses.
