Exterior Cleaning in San Diego County

Yes, if not cleaned and maintained, panels can lose 15-35% efficiency. This loss of electricity means you will have to pay for electricity from SDG&E, which will add years to your payback time and/or a true-up bill.

How do I know that cleaning my panels will improve my system’s performance?
You can monitor changes in the power output of your solar panels before and after, knowing your peak production is a major factor. We do offer a MONEY BACK GUARANTEE because we are confident in the results you will see.  You must have an app that tracks and logs to show your before and after output.  We have a proven history of increasing efficiency after personally monitoring over 20,000 panels locally.

No. The rain may rinse off some of the surface dirt, but if the panels have any level of buildup, the rain can make it worse. A good visual is to consider what the rain does to your car windows after it rains. Here in California, it is very unlikely to have rain that would be substantial enough to clean your solar panels.

Yes! You draw down those credits when you come home and turn on the lights, but if, over time, you generate more credits than you use, you can sell the credits to the power company. The rules and rates for selling electricity to the grid vary from state to state, as well as by utility companies.

There is always a base fee which includes pricing per square foot; however, each house will be uniquely priced based on the surfaces being cleaned.

Pressure washing is a cleaning method that uses high-pressure water to clean. It is typically used on hardscapes such as driveways, sidewalks, and decks. Most of the time, the high pressure is enough to blast away dirt, dust, mold, mud, gum, and other unwanted substances, but there is another version of pressure washing called power washing. It uses the same technique, except it utilizes hot water. Power washing is a great way to tackle oil or grease stains as it helps them rise above the pores of a variety of concrete surfaces. This technique allows us to achieve a great clean and reduces the use of degreasers or other cleaning solutions to remove stains.
