Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Swanley

Case Study Summary

At Mr Clever Clean, we are dedicated to providing high-quality exterior cleaning services across Swanley. Recently, a homeowner approached us with a pressing concern affecting their array of solar panels. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were compromised, limiting their performance. This project summary details how we brought back peak efficiency using our specialized soft wash method.

Obstacles Faced

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

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display revealed a drop in efficiency, potentially costing them money due to increased electricity prices during the cost of living crisis.

• Need for Gentle Cleaning: The solar panels needed a gentle yet effective cleaning method.

Our Approach

Upon being called, we conducted a thorough site survey to assess the extent of the contamination and develop an optimal cleaning plan. We then provided the customer with a detailed proposal, which they accepted. Here’s a detailed breakdown 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 proposed cleaning the roof later to stop lichen regrowth.

2. Scheduling and Preparation: The customer chose to start with the solar panels, 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 specialized cleaning solution to the solar panels. The solution was designed to sanitize and break down the organic contaminants. We allowed it to dwell 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 gentle-bristled pole to gently remove the contaminants. This method provided complete removal of grime without any chance of harming the panel surface.

5. Final Inspection and Customer Sign-Off: After finishing the project, we conducted a final rinse to ensure all residues were removed. The customer was asked to review the work, and they revealed the improved output on their remote display as displayed on their remote system.

Outcome

The improvement was outstanding. The lichen was completely removed from the solar panels, bringing back their original look and enhancing performance. The customer was delighted with the immediate increase in energy production, which meant lower energy costs.
