Irvine Solar Panel Cleaning for Peak Sun Power
Pollen, dust, ash, and overspray block sunlight and drag down output. We clean with pure water and soft brushes — no soap, no squeegees — so your system breathes again.
We’re in Irvine a lot, and dirty panels are a quiet reason bills creep up. A Woodbridge homeowner called last spring about a sudden spike — thick pollen and wind-blown dust had blanketed her array. One careful clean and the system was back to normal.
Do Solar Panels Really Need Cleaning?
Yes. Even with “clean” air, Irvine adds up: construction dust near Great Park, seasonal ash, eucalyptus pollen, bird droppings near Mason Park, and general road film. When debris sits, light can’t reach the cells efficiently — you’ll see it in your monitoring app or on the power bill.
What Our Solar Cleaning Includes
- Deionized/filtered water clean — no soaps that leave residue
- Soft-bristle brushes and gentle rinses (no squeegees)
- Frames & glass cleaned without stressing seals
- Before/after photos and notes on visible wear or issues
- Ground-area rinse down below the roof if needed
We keep it simple, safe, and thorough — no shortcuts and no mess down below.
How Often Should You Clean in Irvine?
Every 6 months works for most homes. If you’re under trees in Turtle Rock or get Sand Canyon dust, quarterly may be smarter. Rain won’t “wash” panels — it leaves film behind — and sprinkler overspray can create hard water spots.

Common Questions
Can I clean panels myself?
If you’re fully comfortable on roofs and have the right gear, maybe — but DIY often scratches glass or leaves spots. We use panel-safe tools and DI water.
Do you use soap or chemicals?
No soaps — they can leave films that attract dirt. We rely on filtered water and soft brushes.
Will cleaning affect my warranty?
Our gentle methods align with manufacturer care guidelines. We avoid abrasive pads, high pressure, and harsh cleaners.
Do you clean big commercial arrays?
Yes. Share panel count, access details, and timing, and we’ll quote a schedule.
