Why Businesses Need Professional Solar Panel Cleaning
Dirty Commercial Panels = Higher Bills + Lower Solar Output
Commercial sites accumulate contaminants faster than residential systems due to heavy traffic, pollution, and roof height.
Independent testing shows commercial solar efficiency drops:
-
5%–10% within 3–6 months
-
15%–25%+ in high-pollution, industrial or coastal zones
That’s thousands of dollars in lost generation — every year.
Prevent Hotspots, Failures & Warranty Issues
Built-up grime creates uneven heating, increasing the chance of:
-
Hotspots
-
Panel degradation
-
Micro-cracking
-
Potential fire risks
-
Warranty rejection for “lack of maintenance”
Our cleaning method is manufacturer-approved, using pure deionised water and non-abrasive techniques.

Dirty panels = higher grid reliance = higher peak charges.

-
Retail/strata/schools: every 6 months
-
Standard commercial: annually

Coastal/city fringe: quarterly recommended
