Having your solar panels serviced and maintained at least twice a year will not only improve your output but will also help you maintain the panel's health. Debris, hard water, and other buildup can cause significant damage that may not be visible from the ground or until a rinse removes anything that could obstruct the view of the panels. Cleanings can aid in the discovery of any damages to the panels and the surrounding roof, allowing them to be repaired and addressed sooner rather than later.

Most solar panels, depending on location, do not need to be cleaned every day, let alone every month. Cleanings two or three times a year have been shown to improve solar panel output significantly. Some customers report noticing differences as soon as their solar panels are serviced. With increased solar output comes increased savings in your pocket.

While aesthetics may not be the first reason you choose to install solar panels, you are unlikely to remove them because you dislike the way they look. Having dirty solar panels is akin to driving a luxury car covered in dirt; the car is nice, but the filth isn't. With regular cleaning, your solar panels will reflect throughout the neighborhood, matching the nice clean aesthetic of the rest of your home and possibly motivating your neighbors to clean the dirt, debris, and pigeon droppings off their roof.
