How We Clean Solar Panels
Our team uses specialized cleaning solutions and tools designed specifically for solar panel surfaces. We work with great care so each panel is cleaned properly and debris is removed without scratching or damaging the glass. We do not use high-pressure equipment or abrasive materials that could void your warranty.
We clean from the ground with extension equipment where possible, or with proper roof-access safety protocols when we need to be on the roof. After cleaning, we can note any signs of damage or corrosion so you can address them with your installer if needed.
Pair solar panel cleaning with window washing or gutter cleaning and we can often schedule both in one visit.

More ReviewsSolar Panel Cleaning - Frequently Asked Questions
Why do solar panels need professional cleaning?
Dust, pollen, bird droppings, tree sap, and environmental grime accumulate on solar panels over time, reducing their energy output by up to 25-30%. Rain alone doesn't adequately clean panels — it often just redistributes dirt into streaks. Professional cleaning restores panels to maximum efficiency, helping you get the most from your investment. In the Chicagoland area, where seasonal pollen, construction dust, and harsh winters are common, annual or bi-annual cleaning is especially important for maintaining optimal solar energy production.
Will cleaning my solar panels void the warranty?
Not when done by professionals using proper methods. At Property Refresh, we use deionized water and soft brushes — no harsh chemicals, high-pressure sprays, or abrasive tools that could damage panels or void warranties. In fact, many solar panel manufacturers recommend regular professional cleaning as part of their maintenance guidelines. We follow all manufacturer best practices to ensure your warranty remains intact while keeping your panels performing at their peak.
How often should solar panels be cleaned?
For most residential installations in the Chicago area, we recommend cleaning solar panels once or twice per year. The best times are spring (after pollen season and winter grime) and late fall (before snow season). Homes near trees, highways, or construction zones may benefit from more frequent cleanings. Commercial solar installations with larger arrays often schedule quarterly cleaning to maintain consistent energy output. Pair solar panel cleaning with window washing or gutter cleaning to save time and money with a bundled service.
Can I clean solar panels myself with a garden hose?
While rinsing with a garden hose can remove loose debris, it won't effectively clean baked-on bird droppings, tree sap, or mineral deposits — and hard water from a garden hose can actually leave mineral spots that reduce panel efficiency further. Additionally, climbing on your roof to access panels poses a serious safety risk. Our professional team uses deionized purified water and specialized soft-brush equipment designed specifically for solar panels. We clean them safely from the ground or with proper roof access equipment, ensuring thorough cleaning without any risk of damage or personal injury.
Do you service both residential and commercial solar installations?
Yes! We clean solar panels on residential rooftops, commercial buildings, carport solar structures, and ground-mounted arrays. For commercial clients, we offer maintenance contracts with scheduled cleanings to ensure consistent energy production year-round. Our commercial services team has the equipment to handle large-scale installations safely and efficiently. Whether you have 10 panels on your home or 500 on a commercial property, we deliver the same professional results. Contact us or book online for a free estimate.
