Our Solar Panel Cleaning Process

We use a systematic, safe, and effective approach that delivers maximum results:

1

Site Assessment

We evaluate your solar array layout, panel type, mounting system, and surrounding obstacles to design the optimal cleaning approach.

2

Flight Planning

Our FAA-certified pilots create precise flight paths that ensure complete panel coverage while maintaining safe clearance from all structures.

3

Safety Setup

We establish a secure work perimeter and verify all safety protocols before beginning operations.

4

Precision Cleaning

Drones apply purified water through soft-wash spray systems, gently removing all dirt, dust, pollen, and organic buildup without touching panel surfaces.

5

Rinse and Dry

Panels are rinsed with purified water that leaves zero mineral deposits or streaks. Surfaces dry naturally to a spotless, crystal-clear finish.

6

Output Verification

We can provide before-and-after energy output data to demonstrate the immediate improvement in panel performance.

Our drone solar panel cleaning process is faster, safer, and more effective than traditional manual cleaning methods.

FAQs About Drone Panel Cleaning

Contact us

How often should I clean my solar panels?

Most residential and commercial installations benefit from cleaning 2-4 times per year, depending on location. Areas with high dust, pollen, or bird activity may require quarterly cleaning. We can recommend a schedule based on your specific conditions.

Will cleaning really increase my energy output?

Yes. Studies show dirty panels lose 20-30% efficiency. Most customers see an immediate 20-30% increase in daily energy production after professional cleaning. The exact gain depends on how dirty the panels were before cleaning.

Is drone cleaning safe for my panels?

Absolutely. Our non-contact soft-wash method is safer than manual cleaning. We never touch panel surfaces, eliminating the risk of scratches, micro-fractures, or seal damage that can occur with brushes or squeegees.

What if my panels are on a steep or complex roof?

Drones excel at cleaning difficult installations. Steep roofs, multi-level arrays, and complex layouts are no problem. Drones reach every panel safely without the risks and costs of scaffolding or lifts.

Do you use chemicals on the panels?

We primarily use purified water, which is highly effective for most cleaning. When needed, we use biodegradable, panel-safe cleaning agents approved by solar manufacturers. All solutions are eco-friendly and leave zero residue.

How long does cleaning take?

Most residential arrays (10-30 panels) are cleaned in 1-2 hours. Commercial installations vary based on size, but drones work significantly faster than manual crews. We’ll provide an estimated timeline during your free assessment.

Will you damage my roof?

No. Our drones never land on or touch your roof. All cleaning is performed from the air, eliminating any risk of roof damage, punctures, or leaks.

Can you clean panels in winter or during cloudy weather?

Yes. Drones operate safely in most weather conditions. We avoid high winds and active precipitation, but cloudy days and cold weather are no problem. In fact, cleaning panels before winter can maximize your energy production during shorter days.
