Desert dust, bird droppings and grime settle on your panels and quietly take a cut of everything they produce. We wash them properly and your production comes back.
Las Vegas gives solar panels close to the best sunlight in the country and some of the worst air to sit in. Fine desert dust settles on the glass, the occasional rain turns it into a film rather than washing it away, and bird droppings bake on hard.
Dirty panels can lose 15 to 30 percent of their production. On an average Las Vegas home with a 10 kW system that is roughly $300 to $600 a year going missing — and it rarely looks obviously wrong on a monitoring app, because the decline is gradual rather than sudden.
In this climate we recommend a professional clean at least twice a year. Panels under trees, near a dust source, or with birds overhead need it more often.
Thorough but gentle — the wrong technique costs more than the dirt ever did.
Before any water goes on we check the panels, the mounting and the roof underneath. If birds have been nesting under there, washing the glass alone would be treating the symptom.
Panels are washed thoroughly but gently. Aggressive pressure and harsh chemicals can damage the anti-reflective coating and the seals around the glass.
Dirt builds up along the frame edges, where it shades the bottom row of cells. Those get cleaned too, not just the open glass.
We are happy to walk you round the panels afterwards, and your production figures over the following days will tell you the rest.
Suds going on, and the same arrays once they are rinsed and dry — washed gently rather than blasted, so the anti-reflective coating stays intact.
Solar cleaning comes with a satisfaction guarantee — if you are not happy with the result, we come back. We are a licensed and insured Nevada contractor and a family business in Las Vegas since 2019.
In the Las Vegas desert climate we recommend professional cleaning at least twice a year. Dust, bird droppings and pollen can reduce panel efficiency by up to 30%. Regular cleaning keeps production where it should be all year round.
Dirty panels can lose 15 to 30 percent of their production. For an average Las Vegas home with a 10 kW system that could mean $300 to $600 per year in lost savings, so regular cleaning typically pays for itself many times over.
No. Panels are washed gently. High pressure and harsh chemicals risk damaging the anti-reflective coating and the seals, which is a far more expensive problem than the dirt.
Yes. Our team works with all major solar panel brands and mounting systems — monocrystalline, polycrystalline and thin-film alike.
Then cleaning the glass on its own will not hold. We remove the birds, nests and droppings first and can fit galvanized steel mesh around the array so they cannot get back underneath. Tell us what you have seen and we will look while we are up there.
