The popularity of solar panels has increased exponentially in recent years. With utility bills on the rise in the UK, saving money is a priority for most homeowners.
Cleaning solar panels is essential for several reasons:
Maximise Efficiency: Dust, dirt, bird droppings, and other debris can accumulate on the surface of solar panels, blocking sunlight and reducing their efficiency. Clean panels can absorb more sunlight, generating more electricity.
Maintain Longevity: Regular cleaning helps prevent potential damage caused by accumulated debris, which can lead to scratches or other surface damage over time. This maintenance helps ensure the panels remain in good condition and last longer.
Improve Return on Investment (ROI): Clean solar panels produce more energy, leading to higher savings on electricity bills and a better ROI. Regular maintenance ensures that the panels perform at their best, maximising financial benefits.
Prevent Damage: Some debris, like bird droppings, can be corrosive. Regular cleaning prevents such corrosive materials from damaging the panels, which can incur repair or replacement costs. Pigeons are the most common culprit, as they love to nest underneath the panels. We would also recommend having mesh fitted around your solar panels to prevent this from happening.
Aesthetic Appeal: Clean panels look better and can be a point of pride for homeowners or businesses.
By keeping solar panels clean, you can ensure they operate efficiently, remain in good condition, and provide the maximum financial and environmental benefits.
