Your Local Solar Panel Cleaning Service For Yeovil

Case Study Summary

At Mr Clever Clean, we are dedicated to providing top-notch exterior cleaning services across Yeovil. Recently, a customer approached us with a major problem affecting their array of solar panels. Due to roof contamination from organic buildup, the solar panels were heavily affected, lowering energy output. This project summary details how we brought back peak efficiency using our specialized soft wash method.

Obstacles Faced

• Organic Contamination: The roof was infested with lichen, which cross-contaminated the panels, obscuring the cells and significantly reducing their efficiency.

• Reduced Energy Production: The customer’s remote display showed a considerable decline in energy output, potentially increasing their electricity bills during the cost of living crisis.

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

Our Approach

Upon being reached out to, we conducted a thorough site survey to understand the contamination level and identify the ideal cleaning method. We then offered a clear plan and estimate, which they accepted. Here’s a step-by-step overview 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 proposed cleaning the roof later 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 began the cleaning on the appointed date.

3. Softwashing Application: Using our advanced softwashing system, we applied a targeted wash agent to the solar panels. The solution was formulated for thorough and safe cleaning. We allowed it to dwell 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 gently remove the contaminants. This method provided complete removal of grime 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.

Results

The change was remarkable. The lichen was eradicated from the panel surface, restoring them to their original condition and greatly improving their efficiency. The customer was delighted with the immediate increase in energy production, which translated to significant savings on their electricity bill.
