While solar panels are incredibly low-maintenance compared to most energy sources, ensuring optimal performance and lifespan requires some occasional TLC. Here at OneSolar, we believe in going the extra mile to keep your solar plants to work optimally.  We understand the importance of maintaining optimal panel health and offer comprehensive cleaning and Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC) services to keep your solar system functioning optimally for years to come.

Why Regular Cleaning Matters:

It’s true that solar panels themselves generally require minimal maintenance. They operate quietly, have no moving parts, and withstand most weather conditions with ease. However, external factors can affect their efficiency and longevity.

The Culprits:

• Hard Water: Minerals in hard water can leave residue on panels, reducing sunlight absorption.
• Construction Dust: If your installation occurred in a dusty environment, residual cement or plaster can also impact performance.
• Bird Droppings: While not frequent, bird droppings can act as mini magnifying glasses, potentially causing localized hotspots on panels.

Dust, pollen, bird droppings, and other environmental elements can accumulate on your panels, reducing their efficiency by up to 30%. Regular cleaning ensures maximum sunlight absorption, translating directly to increased energy production and financial savings.

The Importance of Cleaning:

While these issues may seem minor, even a thin layer of dust or residue can reduce your system’s energy output by up to 20%. Regular cleaning, especially in areas prone to the factors mentioned above, ensures your panels operate at peak efficiency and maximize your return on investment.

OneSolar Annual Maintenance Services:

Our Annual Maintenance Contracts offer a convenient and comprehensive solution for maintaining your solar system’s health. We recommend regular cleaning intervals based on your location and potential risk factors. Our AMCs typically include:

Investing in Peace of Mind:

An AMC is a proactive approach to maintaining your solar investment. It protects your panels from unnecessary wear and tear, optimizes their performance, and helps identify potential issues before they become major problems. This translates to peace of mind, knowing your solar system is operating efficiently and delivering its full potential for years to come.
