Finally cleaned my own roof’s solar panels. EZ cleaning with the right tools. Hardest part was going up the ladder due to fear of heights, but overcame that. So satisfying! Thanks for your vids.
Nice work!
Love the picture taking part, it is so important for you and the customer in case something breaks or an accident. Not to mention pounting out other problems to the customer.
Thanks for the information! Very useful 👍 tomorrow I'm going to clean my panels! Let the ☀️ shine in!
I was hoping to see the final numbers on the panels. I saw the before numbers 1955 on the left one and about 2400 on the right. I really enjoy the videos.
It's not a true comparison to look at the numbers post cleaning since the position of the sun changes.... You'd need to compare output a day before (total days worth) vs a day after cleaning ( assuming no clouds for total daily output).
I’m loving your videos. Super informative and inspiring. I live in Hawaii and am considering your business. Thank you for all the information. Aloha
Awesome to hear from Hawaii
Thank you for sharing. I'm from Springdale, Arkansas and I'm going to start up a solar panels cleaning services. Thank you
Awesome to hear
I know it’s depends on the job for price, what’s your average charge for a job, also do you use the water from the houses or bring your own water supply. If you bring your own water supply how many approximate gallons used per job and where do you fill your tanks
Please watch ⌚️ more videos all the qustions you are asking I have said many times
wow! amazing video, where did you get your ladder from?
I checked out the price for the roller brush cleaner. Just the tool alone is nearly 1700 Euros. Plus you need a pressurized deionized pressure water system to operate it brush. The system is made by a company in Scandinavia some where, I could understand the language it was written. Found a cheaper system with solar panel cleaning detergent on Amazon for 109 dollars. More my speed, I’ll let everyone know how it works.
That's great but we do big businesses and this works for us
Hi Guys I really enjoyed your video,
Pls tell what do you need to start up with a very limited budget.
I looked for link to the spinning brush but do not see it.
Where can a buy the entire equipment needed to start a small business cleaning solar panels like your set up?
Am pressure washing in lake elisnore,
Hi you don’t turn off the power panel? I like your vidio was rely helpful to me thank you 🙏
No absolutely not… what happens when it rains? You don't turn off your solar right!
Let’s edit out the McDonald’s next time. You two have great information though. Elaborate on the water fed brush. I.e., nylon? Hybrid? Boars hair? And what is the big spinning water fed brush called? Thanks for the awesome video.
LOL thank you for your insite
I have 100s of videos explaining this
Great info. Thanks for sharing. What is the name of the cheaper flow through brush you started out with? I don’t see it in the description. Thank you!
Honestly I don't remember the name but it was a 12 inch brush head and waterfed pole
Hi I also live in Hawaii and in our area we have a fine clay dust that accumulates on the panels. I've been up on the roof many times to try and scrub it off but if you can imagine wet clay it just sort of smears and leaves spots when dry. I used dish soap before but what the say is true about soap and dirt sticking to the panel after washing. This is the only real headache with solar panels. After all this time I'm surprised they can address this issue on the manufacturing side.
Also My roof is three stories high and close to the neighbors where I am hesitant to use a pressure washer and have the over spray hit their house.
Any suggestions with the clay deposits?
Great video
Thank you for video ! Guys
I’m thinking in going in solar panel cleaning business
Go for it!
Central Valley here. Damn those supposedly dirty panels are clean as f**k compared to mine. Between almond orchard dust and soot from last years fires, mine need cleaning bad. Do you guys have a NorCal sister company??
No we dont
That brush is amazing
Have a place or cradle when assembling that brush. Putting it on concrete puts silactes in the brush. Hopefully most of the sand came out before you started filming.
Can you send me the link to get the Rotating brush for the panels, I am located in the sunshine state of florida
No link check in the description
I imagine it is like cleaning windows. Do you use some kind of soap?
Do you squeegee afterwards or is the brush enough to get all the dirt and grime off?
You obviously have not watched all our videos we never squeegee a solar panel...no need too
This was the first one of your vids I’ve seen. Looking for tips to start up
Do u guys turn of the invertor while cleaning the panels ?
No
Where do you buy your setup. I want to start a soft wash setup
Love the video
Is it OK to clean in the middle of the day? My solar company said only very early morning or late at night because the water can Crack the panels? I live in Central valley and in the summer it's consistently 100 plus so I don't know if that's a factor.
We clean panel's in the desert at 12 noon over 100 degrees and sometimes we get rain while it's over 100 degrees and we never have issues...solar panels can withstand 185 degrees and many different situations like high winds. I think you are getting bad information from your solar company
Thanks for the info I have been terrified to clean them and am now feeling it with my true up bill. I can see a thick layer on them. But I didn't want to brake them. You guys are awesome and quick to respond thank you so much!!!!!!
@@tiffer6517 you will be fine
Looking good Guys
thank you High Low
what kind of solution do you use
Solution? We only use Deionized Water
Great videos do u guys use deionized water, is it customer water?
No deionized water
Can you please do a video on cleaning a Tesla Solar roof?
Yes when we get one
How do you guys work your pricing? I’m looking to start a business but i don’t know how to set a price. Is it per panel and how many stories the house is?
We don't charge per panel we charge for 1 or 2 story homes
@@socalsolarpanelcleaningcompany
Thank you for your response.
What’s a good price range to consider when charging customers
@@johnnyshomegarden260 150 to 200 for single story and 250 to 300 for two story
@@socalsolarpanelcleaningcompany Thank you sir!! Thanks for the videos really helpful
@@socalsolarpanelcleaningcompany what about commercial buildings or the bigger longer panels that's on the ground ?
Beautiful

Very insirational
How much do you charge for your work?
thats reserved for our super duper membership :-)😀
What kind of ladder
Telescopic ladder you can find this on Amazon
Dude, your assistant is putting the expensive roller brush on the ground each time and the you use it to clean the panels. He should know better. Other than that, nice brush and system if you have a company.
Thanks for the tip
