Yes. In the arid Phoenix climate, dust, pollen, and bird droppings accumulate quickly and aren't washed away by rain. This soiling can reduce panel efficiency by 15-30%, significantly impacting your energy savings. Regular cleaning is essential for maintaining peak performance.
The best method involves using deionized water and soft-bristle brushes to avoid mineral deposits and scratches. Professionals use specialized equipment to safely access panels and ensure a thorough, streak-free clean without harsh chemicals, protecting both your panels and your roof.
For most homes in the Phoenix area, cleaning solar panels once or twice a year is recommended to maintain optimal efficiency. Systems in particularly dusty areas or near agricultural fields may benefit from more frequent cleaning, especially after monsoon season.
While DIY cleaning is possible, it can be risky. Working on a roof is dangerous without proper safety equipment, and using incorrect tools or tap water can damage the panels or leave mineral spots. Professional services ensure the job is done safely and effectively.
