Why solar panel cleaning matters:

Over time, solar panels collect dirt, dust, leaves, and bird droppings — reducing their ability to absorb sunlight efficiently. This can decrease electricity production by up to 30%.

CleanwayXtra uses a specialised purified water-fed pole system that safely and effectively removes contaminants without scratching or damaging your solar panels. This method is chemical-free, eco-friendly, and safe for all rooftops.

Benefits of regular solar panel cleaning:

  • Improve energy output and system performance
  • Protect panels from long-term damage
  • Stay compliant with manufacturer warranty conditions
  • Enhance property value and appearance

Our expert technicians recommend cleaning every 6 to 12 months depending on local conditions (dust, trees, coastal air, etc.). We provide fast, affordable service and guarantee your satisfaction.
