Questions about solar panel cleaning
How do I know the panels need cleaning?
Compare your generation readings with the same month last year. A clear drop in good weather, or dirt you can see from the ground, are the usual signs.
Will cleaning affect my warranty?
Some manufacturers set rules on water and cleaning products. Check your installer's or manufacturer's guidance and send it with your enquiry if you have it.
