How to clean your solar panels
Solar panels that are installed at an angle (in line with a pitched roof or on tilt frames) are generally self cleaning. However in dry, dusty areas or where panels are installed flat; dirt dust, grime and other substances such as bird droppings can build-up reducing the power output of the PV panels. Due to the nature of solar panels grime and bird droppings doesn’t need to cover an entire panel to reduce output significantly.
