How Often Should Solar Panels Be Cleaned?

How often should you clean your solar panels? The answer depends on your environment and location! For most homeowners, a good rule of thumb is to clean your panels at least twice a year. However, if you live in a dusty area, near construction sites, or under trees that shed leaves or bird droppings, you may benefit from quarterly or even bi-monthly cleanings.

Regular cleaning is crucial because dirt, debris, and grime can block sunlight and reduce your panels' efficiency by up to 20%. Keeping them clean ensures they operate at peak performance, saving you more on energy costs in the long run.

At Perimeter Home Services, we provide customized cleaning schedules based on your specific needs, ensuring your panels stay efficient and effective throughout the year. Whether it’s a bi-annual check or more frequent visits, we’ve got you covered.
