Thanks for the tips.
Thanks. I watched to see what to use, so I'm buying Glass Gleam Solar Cleaner from your link. Mine is a small solar panel on the roof for an attic vent fan, so I'll use water and a washcloth-size microfiber to loosen, rinse, then diluted cleaner and a microfiber-wrap brush made for inside vehicle windshields to scrub, a washcloth-size microfiber rag for tough spots, casing lips and to dry, then a bathroom shower wall squeegee to finish up.
THANK YOU
Great
thank you
You're welcome!
So no dishsoap? And ryobi 320psi pressure washer on low settinging?
The user manual for my panels says "each customer is free to choose the method of cleaning" and then goes on to say any damage is not covered by the warranty. Big help. It does also say "Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) can be used selectively to remove stubborn dirt and stains within one hour after emergence." I don't really understand what that means, maybe just for installers?
How many PV in Wp do You use Sir?
I live in an area with hard water. Is there something special needed to prevent the hard water spots when following your guide?
By no means am I an expert but I would definitely use a squeegee after you are done cleaning. But I wouldn't worry too much.
Did you shut down the system of the solar panels before you cleaned
Nope, no need to.
Is there a need to use deionized water?
Nope, no need. It’ll help with water spotting, but I have very hard water in my area and have had no issues.
You mention the coatings on the panels. A 'professional' solar panel cleaner just 'cleaned' the coatings off my 29 panel Tesla array.
Wow…. What did they use to clean it with?
@@DoItYourselfDad The guy said he used Dawn, but I wasn't born yesterday. I wish I'd been home when he did the work. I sent you an email, if you're able to help with any info, I would be very appreciative.
What about drying them? Do you a squeegee or anything? Or just let them air dry?
I just let them air dry, the soap is designed to help prevent water spotting.
I read in several different areas you never walk on your panels as you were
I never walked in the panels, I never even got on the roof…. and you are correct, panels should never be walked on.
