At Eco Solar Clean, we recently completed a solar panel cleaning job on a townhouse in Mosgiel, where we cleaned 20 rooftop solar panels that were soiled despite recent heavy rain.

The panels were coated with a thick layer of dust, bee droppings, pollen, and early signs of lichen growth – all of which reduce solar efficiency and long-term panel performance. Even after a full day of rain, the build-up remained stubborn, especially around the panel edges and corners.



Rain Doesn’t Properly Clean Solar Panels



A common misconception is that rain will clean your solar panels, much like it washes your car windshield. But just like with

windshields, rain alone doesn’t remove stuck-

on debris, droppings, or organic growth like lichen. In fact, rain can sometimes leave behind streaks and water spots, further diminishing performance.


That’s where we come in.
















Our Professional Solar Panel Cleaning Service



Using our pure water-fed pole system, we removed all the grime and gently lifted away early-stage lichen without damaging the panels. Our eco-friendly, chemical-free process ensures a thorough clean while protecting your investment.
