Protecting your investment
Solar panels are being increasingly installed onto domestic properties. There are of course many advantages to having them installed, however accessing them once installed can be difficult.
Since solar panels have no moving parts, we might tend to ignore their maintenance. Keeping a solar panel clean is more than just a cosmetic concern. A panel needs to be clean for it to operate at its rated capacity.
Research conducted at Boston University, USA, discovered that a dust layer of 4 grams per square metre can decrease solar power conversion by 40 percent. That can dramatically affect both its efficiency and its capacity to generate you an income. Regular cleaning will help maintain your solar panel’s efficiency and output, thus protecting your investment.
