Solar Panel Cleaning

It is not recommended by solar panel manufacturers to use chemicals to clean your panels. Tap water and rain water will not clean solar panels sufficiently to keep them running at maximum efficiency. Using detergents to clean solar panels leaves a sticky microscopic film on the solar panel which actually attracts dirt and grime. Again, this will lead to your solar panels not running efficiently.

Ultra-pure water is a very effective cleaning agent. It also leaves no residue behind.

Ultra-pure water has no dissolved solids, and therefore readily dissolves dirt and grease from the surfaces of solar panels. It also dries completely spot-free, leaving no marks behind. Ultra-pure water is a proven technology, and has been used for window cleaning for more than a decade to leave a spot-free, smear-free finish. Using water-fed poles, it's possible to clean most panels without the need for special access equipment.

How Does Ultra-Pure Water Clean?

A soft-bristled brush is used to lightly lift the dirt from the panel, at the same time jets of ultra-pure water rinse the surface clean. Because the water is so pure, it dries naturally without leaving any marks behind unlike mains supplied tap water or chemical based cleaners. This will also prolong the need to clean as regular because chemical cleaners leave sticky polymers behind which will attract air born dirt.
