The service

Dirty panels cost you every sunny day.

Dust, pollen, bird droppings, lichen and tree sap build up on panels and block the sun. Output can drop by up to 20 to 30 percent on badly soiled panels. You’re paying for a system that isn’t performing.

We clean with purified water and soft brushes. No pressure washers, no abrasive pads, no harsh chemicals, nothing that puts your panel warranty at risk. Just clean glass, generating what it should.

What you get

  • Soft brush and purified water only
  • No residue, no mineral spotting
  • Removes bird mess, pollen, dust, lichen and sap
  • Warranty-safe method
  • Safe roof access
  • Results guaranteed or you don’t pay
Done properly

Why the method matters

Purified water

Tap water leaves minerals behind as it dries, which is exactly what you don’t want on a panel. Purified water dries clean.

Soft brush, no pressure

High pressure can damage seals and void warranties. A soft brush and plenty of water does the job without any risk.

Lichen and bird mess

The stubborn spots that shade individual cells get extra attention, because one shaded cell can drag down a whole string.

Pair it with gutters

Panels and gutters in the same visit is a common combination. We’re already up there.

FAQ

Good questions. Straight answers.

How much output do dirty panels lose?

Heavily soiled panels can lose 20 to 30 percent of their output. In Tasmania, trees, birds and pollen add up quickly. A clean often pays for itself in recovered power, with some left over to keep more money in your pocket.

Will cleaning void my panel warranty?

No. We use purified water and soft brushes, the method most manufacturers recommend. No high-pressure washers, abrasive tools or harsh chemicals.

How much does solar panel cleaning cost in Hobart?

Most residential systems fall between $199 and $400 depending on the number of panels and roof access. You get a price before we start.

How often should solar panels be cleaned?

Every 6 to 12 months for most Hobart homes. Under trees or with lots of birds around, every 6 months keeps output up.

Do you clean commercial arrays?

Yes. Residential rooftops and larger commercial arrays, with scheduled cleans available. Clean panels put out more power, which makes running the business more efficient and more cost effective.
