by Allen Ketty Allen Ketty

Solar panels generate electricity by enabling the sunlight to enter the panels. In many places, the usage of solar electricity has increased. It can be used for various purposes such as transportation, charging battery, heating, lighting and many more. Apart from its several uses; solar energy has got many advantages associated with it. It produces energy without polluting the environment. Also, if you choose solar power over hydropower, then you can save much on the electricity bills. Hence, many countries have started adopting solar energy. However, it is important to maintain the solar panels properly to make sure that they work efficiently. The maintenance of solar panels include cleaning, testing, servicing, etc. Among these, cleaning is also one of the important factors to consider under the maintenance of the solar panels. There are several reasons behind the importance of cleaning which are explained as follows: -

 

 

       To discard the bird droppings: - We might be in a misconception that the rain's water is able to wash off all the bird’s poop from the panels. But in fact, it is the opposite, and it should be cleaned properly by using the correct means.

 

       Get rid of dirt and dust: - The naturally coming dirt and dust will always form its layers on the solar panels, which ultimately becomes an obstacle in the efficient performance of producing solar energy. Hence, you must make sure that it is cleaned regularly without fail.

 

       Might lose benefit of warranty: - The companies always mention in their guides that the solar panels need to be maintained and kept clean on a regular basis to avoid any future problems. Thus, to enjoy the benefit of warranty, you need to have the proper proof of  maintenance and cleanliness.

 

       Wipes out rainwater: - Also, the water from rain, if not cleaned on a regular basis, may form the green layer by accumulating the dirt and dust along with it. It also contains the air borne dust particles which might get attached to the panels and cause damage if not kept clean.

 

       Improves the overall performance: - It has been proved that the solar panels which are maintained and kept clean on a regular basis are able to produce more energy as compared to the solar panels which are not. However, you must know the correct ways of cleaning and maintenance. Also, you may take help from the cleaning services. There are several agencies who provide this service.

 

 

It is important to check that the methods which you are using are correct or not, because often people damage the system in the process of cleaning it. Hence, it is always better to seek help from the professional cleaners. There are many solar panel cleaners in Hinckley available at your doorstep for providing this service. You may also find it online by just typing solar panel cleaning in Hinckley on the web.
