Solar Panel New Installation Cleaning Procedure

Removal of construction dust, fingerprints, and sealant residue

Our team expertly removes dust, fingerprints, and leftover sealant commonly found after construction or installation. These contaminants can reduce panel efficiency and appearance, so we ensure a pristine, professional finish.

Final clean before system activation

We provide a comprehensive final cleaning service to prepare your solar array for activation. A clean surface ensures your panels begin operating at peak performance from day one, maximizing your system’s energy output.

DI water rinse for spot-free finish

Every cleaning is completed with a deionized (DI) water rinse that eliminates minerals and impurities. This prevents water spots and streaking, leaving your panels crystal clear and ready for optimal sun absorption.

Panel edge wipe-down and mount inspection

We carefully wipe down the edges of each panel and inspect the mounting hardware to ensure everything is secure and debris-free. This detailed approach helps protect your investment and prevent future issues.

Pre-clean performance check (optional)

For added value, we offer an optional pre-clean performance check to benchmark how your system is performing before service. This helps highlight the energy gains achieved through professional cleaning.

Ideal for post-roof replacement or remodels

Our service is perfect after roof replacements, remodeling projects, or any construction activity near your panels. We ensure your system is completely clean and safe before going live or returning to regular use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is solar panel cleaning important in San Diego?

Living in San Diego, we get a lot of sunshine—which is great for solar, but also means dust, pollen, bird droppings, and even ocean salt can build up fast. When that grime collects, it blocks sunlight and reduces your system’s efficiency. Regular cleanings keep your panels performing at their best and help protect your investment.

Most of our jobs in the San Diego area fall between $100 and $300, depending on how many panels you have and how accessible they are. We offer affordable maintenance plans too, which save you money in the long run.

In many cases, yes. Some manufacturers require regular maintenance, including cleaning, to keep your warranty valid. We can help document your cleanings in case you ever need to file a warranty claim.

For most of our San Diego clients, we recommend cleaning every 6 months. If you’re near the beach, under a lot of trees, or have a high pollen area, you might benefit from a quarterly schedule. We can help you set the right frequency based on your location and setup.

Yes, as long as it’s done right. We use deionized water that won’t leave spots or damage the panels. We never use pressure washers, and we avoid cleaning during peak sunlight hours to prevent thermal stress on the glass.
