Unfortunately not to the extent to which you are maximising the efficiency of your solar panel system. Just like your car windscreen needs wipers, your solar panels need help too, to clean off general pollution, traffic dust, dirt, salt residue, bird droppings, mould or the like which has been baked on by the sun.
Simply, if vertical windows accumulate dirt and block out light, how much more so will dirt on your solar panels blocking the sunlight affect you? A clean window looks great, but there is no financial return being generated by cleaning a window, unlike cleaning solar panels.

If you have owned solar panels for at least six months, you are probably already experiencing decreases in their output. Anything that prevents or restricts sunlight from entering the solar cells will reduce their capacity to perform at their maximum efficiency. Anything preventing sunlight from getting to the photovoltaic cells in your solar panels means your system is not operating efficiently.
Their are very few things in this world that if left unmaintained will perform or last as expected. Your solar system is no different, it needs to be maintained to work the best for you. We use de-ionized water (pure water) to give your solar panels a spot free cleaning. To preserve the life of your solar system, it is highly recommended to only use de-ionized water.
YES, you should! Solar panels are designed to capture the suns energy with maximum efficiency. However, over time a panel's efficiency is reduced as contaminants accumulate on the glass surface. Even minor accumulations of airborne particles can drastically reduce the efficiency of a panel from 10% - 30%.

I recently had Team Solar Clean do their magic on our 21 panel solar array. They did an excellent job and the owner, Travis, is a pleasure to deal, too.
It's so nice to find a folks that take pride in what they are doing and, not only did the crew do a great job cleaning the solar panels, but they went around and cleaned off our (leaf block) gutters, too!
I'm impressed and you will be, too!

Most efficient and inexpensive solar panel cleaning company in northern CA. My estimates where any where from $240.00 and $160.00. BUT, this company cleaned my panels for $125.00 and they look brand new. They clean them with much love and detail and put something on them afterwards to they are spot free. They now look like brand new solar panels.
