Frequently asked questions
How much output can I lose from dirty panels?
Studies and field data put losses at roughly 5–25% depending on dust, pollen and bird droppings — coastal South Bay panels often sit on the higher end due to marine-layer film.
How often should solar panels be cleaned?
Most homeowners benefit from a cleaning every 6–12 months. Homes near trees, freeways or the coast may need it more often.
Will cleaning void my solar warranty?
No — we follow manufacturer-recommended methods (soft brush, purified water, no harsh chemicals or high pressure).
Do you clean commercial solar arrays?
Yes. We service residential rooftops as well as small-to-mid commercial arrays across the South Bay.
