Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Winchester

Case Study Summary

At Mr Clever Clean, we specialize in providing high-quality exterior cleaning services across Winchester. Recently, a client approached us with a pressing concern affecting their six solar panels. Due to lichen growth on the roof, the solar panels were cross-contaminated, lowering energy output. This report details how we restored their solar panels’ performance using our advanced softwashing technique.

Obstacles Faced

• Organic Contamination: The roof was infested with lichen, which transferred to the panels, blocking sunlight and lowering their effectiveness.

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display showed a considerable decline in energy output, 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.

Solution

Upon being reached out to, we carried out a comprehensive assessment to understand the contamination level and identify the ideal cleaning method. 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 outlined our cleaning method and why it’s ideal for solar panels. We also recommended a later roof clean to stop lichen regrowth.

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

3. Softwashing Application: Using our specialized soft wash equipment, we applied a specialized cleaning solution to the solar panels. The solution was effective at removing organic buildup. We allowed it to dwell on the panels for at least 30 minutes to ensure effective treatment.

4. Gentle Cleaning with Water-Fed Pole: After the solution had sufficiently dwelled, we used a water-fed pole with a soft brush 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 performed a last wash to ensure all residues were removed. The customer was encouraged to check the panels, and they shared the increased efficiency results as displayed on their remote system.

Outcome

The improvement was outstanding. The lichen was fully cleared from the panels, bringing back their original look and enhancing performance. The customer was thrilled by the efficiency boost, which meant lower energy costs.
