The frequency of cleaning solar panels can vary depending on several factors, but generally, it is recommended to clean them at least once or twice a year. Here are key considerations for determining the cleaning schedule: Location, weather conditions, angle of installation, surrounding environment, impact on effeciency, tru-up bills, and manufacturer's recommendation. On your first cleaning we will determine those factors and give you our professional recommendation of how many times a year you should clean them.

Regular cleaning of solar panels does indeed improve their efficiency. Dirt, dust, bird droppings, and other debris can accumulate on the surface of solar panels, obstructing sunlight from reaching the photovoltaic cells. Even a thin layer of grime or dust can significantly reduce the amount of sunlight absorbed by the panels. Regular cleaning ensures that the maximum possible amount of sunlight is utilized for energy production.

Our methods focus on being gentle yet effective, ensuring the longevity and optimal performance of the solar panels. We use a non-abrasive rotating brush head that sprays out spot-free water to remove all mineral ions, ensuring no residue is left on the panels after cleaning.

Bird netting for solar panels is a solution that prevents birds from nesting under and damaging the panels. It helps maintain the efficiency and longevity of the solar panels by keeping them free from bird droppings and nesting materials. This protective measure not only reduces maintenance costs but also ensures uninterrupted and optimal energy production from the solar panels.

PVC-coated galvanized steel bird netting is known for its exceptional durability, making it a highly effective and long-lasting solution for bird control. This type of netting is highly resistant to harsh weather conditions, including extreme temperatures, UV radiation, rain, and snow. Galvanized steel provides strength and resistance to rust and corrosion, while the PVC coating adds an extra layer of protection against various environmental elements.

Bird spikes are quite effective in deterring birds from perching on ledges, windowsills, and other surfaces where they are installed. They are particularly useful against larger birds like pigeons and gulls, but are also effective against smaller birds.

They are built to endure extreme weather conditions, including intense sunlight, high temperatures, rain, snow, and even coastal salt spray.  Stainless steel bird spikes are especially resistant to rust and corrosion, ensuring longevity even in humid or coastal environments.

The spikes are typically blunt, not sharp, meaning they are designed to deter birds without causing harm. The intention is to make surfaces uncomfortable for birds, not to injure them.
