What does a solar panel cleaning service include?

When booking through our platform, expect a cleaner who has experience in cleaning both roofs and ground solar panels, the necessary tools for cleaning your source of green energy. They can also provide some solar panel maintenance advice. The goal is to clean your set-up so that it can maximise the light in your area. 

The details of what your solar panel cleaner can or can’t do may vary, so it’s better to be specific in your task post. In general, though, cleaning solar panels is pretty straightforward. This is what you can expect from your Tasker when you book this service through our platform: 

Shutdown and equipment set-up

First, your Tasker shuts down the system before they start cleaning. Then, they’ll begin setting up their tool kit. If your panels are installed on the ground, this is easy enough; otherwise, your Tasker goes up on the roof to work there (or to move the panels to ground level). Make sure they have a hose or faucet near the area where you want them to start cleaning.

Note: It’s best to schedule solar panel cleaning early in the day or late in the afternoon to avoid the heat of the day and smeared dirt (from when the water evaporates too quickly while you clean). 

Solar panel cleaning

Next, your cleaner removes debris, dust, or leaves. Then, they’ll hose down the panels. If your cleaning appointment is scheduled during the colder months, make sure they have access to lukewarm water. Using hot water on cold panels can result in cracks. 

Once the panels are soaked, your cleaner wipes them with a squeegee, soft brush, or cloth. They should not use detergents or abrasive materials on the modules, since this can damage them. If your panels have oil stains, they may use isopropyl alcohol as a spot cleaner.

Final inspection of solar panels 

After scrubbing the panels, your hired expert gives them a final rinse and squeegees them dry. Since typical mains water is hard (mineral-rich), your Tasker must do this last step very well. Mineral deposits can harden on the panels as they dry. This can cause problems with your panels later on. Once your panels are clean and dry, your cleaner mounts them again, turns on the system, and checks to see if they work well. After that, they’ll be on their way.

Solar Panel Cleaning and Gutter Cleaning

Paddington NSW 2021, Australia

22nd Nov 2022

Professional solar cleaning and gutter cleaning service for our property in Paddington. The property has a total of 15 solar panels. In addition to the solar panels we are also need 2 skylights washed and the gutters cleaned out. Looking for businesses and/or professionals who are experienced with solar panel cleaning and understand how to switch the system on and off. This job needs to be completed by 30 November. - Due date: Before Wednesday, 30 November 2022

There is still leaf matter on the roof. Skylights are streaked and have not been wiped down. Not communicating estimated arrival time. Then, when asked, turning up 45 minutes early agreed. Told me I should’ve told him about gutter guards as they meant the job would take longer. It took him just 1.5 hours to “complete” the job. Yes solar panels are somewhat cleaner. No would not recommend. First time leaving a less than glowing review.
