But if you decide to clean the panels by yourself to save some extra money, then you shouldn\u2019t use any cleaning agents on the solar panels, as well as it can void the warranty from the manufacturer. Improper cleaning agents can destroy the anti-reflective coating on your solar panels and that will hamper their regular functions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-don-t-use-a-squeegee-for-cleaning-solar-panels\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dont_use_a_squeegee_for_cleaning_solar_panels\"><\/span>Don\u2019t use a squeegee for cleaning solar panels.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The material used in solar panels is different from the regular metal or wood we use for our household purpose. The squeegee performs greatly while cleaning the furniture, floors, walls, and even utensils. These materials are not as sensitive as the outer layer of solar panels. Therefore, if you tend to clean your solar panels with a squeegee then that may harm or damage your solar panel and it may stop functioning properly. The center for solar power system cleaning in California doesn\u2019t suggest using a squeegee during solar panel cleaning.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-properly-place-yourself-during-cleaning-your-solar-panels\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Properly_place_yourself_during_cleaning_your_solar_panels\"><\/span>Properly place yourself during cleaning your solar panels.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are planning to clean your solar panels by yourself without engaging our professional <a href=\"https:\/\/crystalsolarcleaning.com\/service\/solar-panel-cleaning\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>solar panel cleaning services in California<\/strong><\/a>, then you should use your tools wisely and should place your ladder properly. Because if you fail to follow the proper caution then you may damage your solar power system and that may be costly to repair. At the same time, you may harm yourself as you may slip out from the ladder while cleaning your solar panels.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-finally-don-t-think-that-rain-cleans-the-solar-panels\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Finally_dont_think_that_rain_cleans_the_solar_panels\"><\/span>Finally don\u2019t think that rain cleans the solar panels.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Heavy rain can clean the top layer of your solar panels, where dirt, dust, and debris usually gather. But underneath the top layer, there is a lower layer. Where a heavier amount of dirt and debris stacks up and can\u2019t be cleaned by the rain, even hose water can\u2019t clean it entirely. In California, solar power cleaning services are the best option for cleaning and maintaining your solar panels, so that you can utilize solar energy flawlessly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A little scrubbing with a coarse cloth-covered sponge or soft brush with a decent flow of clean water can remove the most stubborn grime from your solar panels. But if you don\u2019t know the functions of your solar power system entirely, then <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/crystalsolarcleaning.com\/contact-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">contact any agency<\/a><\/strong> like us for <strong>cleaning solar panels in California<\/strong>.
