Our professional advice: get solar panels cleaning at least once a year.
Why annual cleaning?
-
You avoid permanent yield losses.
-
Dirt that accumulates becomes harder to remove and can cause damage.
-
Annual cleaning keeps many installers’ warranty terms valid.
Extra attention needed at:
-
Rural areas (more dust and pollen)
-
Cities (more air pollution)
-
Roofs with a small pitch (water does not wash away dirt as well)
Important tips:
-
Have a specialist clean with osmosis water.
-
Avoid high-pressure sprays or aggressive cleaning agents yourself.
-
Ideally, combine cleaning with an annual technical inspection.
Conclusion:
If you take your solar panels seriously, schedule an annual professional cleaning. That way, you will remain assured of optimal performance and a long service life.
