Frequently Asked Questions
-
Whether you own a home solar array or manage a large commercial system, dust, pollen, bird droppings, and other debris reduce energy output. Professional cleaning ensures your panels perform at maximum efficiency, helping you lower energy costs and protect your investment.
-
In Texas, high dust levels, pollen, and storms can quickly impact performance. We recommend:
Commercial Systems: Every 3–6 months for consistent output, especially for solar farms or high-output installations.
Residential Systems: Every 6 months, or more often if you live near trees, farmland, or industrial areas.
-
Rain may rinse away some surface dirt, but it often leaves mineral deposits and streaks that still block sunlight. Like windows, solar panels need proper cleaning to be spotless and efficient.
-
Yes. Even a small drop in efficiency can mean thousands of dollars in lost energy annually for businesses, schools, or solar farms. Routine cleaning pays for itself through increased output and extended panel lifespan.
-
Cost depends on system size, location, and accessibility.
Commercial & Industrial: Custom quotes based on panel count and service frequency.
