Solar Panel Cleaning
Solar Panel Cleaning Services from Solar Max
Dirty solar panels always produce less electricity than clean panels, which is why solar panel cleaning is an essential component of any solar maintenance program. Our maintenance team is available to clean solar panel arrays on homes, businesses, or large ground mount systems. As a part of the cleaning service, we perform a visual inspection of the solar array to make sure that everything appears to be in good working order.
PV panel performance can degrade by as much as 20% without adequate cleaning. To maintain optimal energy production, solar arrays require periodic solar panel cleanings especially in areas of high airborne particulates (dust, exhaust, coastal salts, organic debris, industrial processes).
Prices Start at Just $30 Per Panel
