What Our Customers Say About NexClean
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my solar panels actually need to be cleaned?
If you see visible dust, bird droppings, or a drop in energy output, it’s time to clean your panels. Even in clean-looking areas, debris buildup can reduce panel efficiency by up to 25%. We recommend an annual inspection to stay ahead of performance loss.
Will the cleaning process void my solar panel warranty?
No, our cleaning process is fully warranty-safe. We use only purified water with soft-bristle brushes—no chemicals, no abrasives, and no pressure washers. We also inspect panel surfaces and wiring before starting to avoid any interference with your system.
Can you clean solar panels during cold or rainy seasons?
Yes, we can clean solar panels in most weather, but extreme cold or icy conditions may delay scheduling. Rain won’t interfere with our purified water cleaning process. In fact, light rain can help with rinsing—but we monitor weather for safety and optimal results.
What happens if it rains right after the panels are cleaned? Will it affect the results?
Rain won’t hurt your freshly cleaned solar panels. We use deionized water that leaves no residue, so even a post-cleaning rain will dry spot-free. In fact, rain can help rinse away any remaining dust that didn’t lift during cleaning.
Can you clean panels that are difficult to reach or located above garages and sunrooms?
Yes, we can clean panels in hard-to-reach areas using our 45-foot water-fed pole system. If the location still requires rooftop access, we’ll assess the slope and use proper harnesses and ladder stabilization to ensure safety and coverage.
Do you need to walk on my roof to clean the panels? Will that damage my shingles?
We only walk on your roof if absolutely necessary, and only when it’s safe to do so. As a firefighter with years of rooftop experience, the owner takes extra care to avoid damaging shingles and always uses proper footwear and harnesses.
Is solar panel cleaning safe for homes with older roofs or fragile shingles?
Yes, we adapt our method based on your roof’s condition. If the shingles are too fragile, we use a ladder-and-pole approach to avoid foot traffic on the roof entirely. We’ll always inspect the area first and explain the safest approach for your home.
Can I bundle solar panel cleaning with other services like window or roof cleaning?
Absolutely. If we’re already on-site for window, roof, or house washing, we’re happy to add solar panel cleaning at a bundled rate. Just let us know ahead of time so we can schedule and quote accordingly.
