Frequently Asked Questions

 

1. How often should I clean my solar panels?

Most homeowners should clean their panels at least once or twice a year. However, in dusty areas like Phoenix, more frequent cleaning may be needed to maintain peak performance.


2. How much does dirty buildup actually affect performance?

Dirt, dust, and debris can reduce solar output by 10–25% or more in some cases. Keeping your panels clean ensures you’re getting the energy production and savings you expect.


3. Do you use safe cleaning methods for solar panels?

Yes. We use non-abrasive, solar-safe cleaning techniques that won’t damage your panels or void your warranty.


4. What is bird and pest proofing, and do I really need it?

Bird and pest proofing involves installing a protective barrier around your panels to prevent animals from nesting underneath. This helps avoid damage, debris buildup, and potential fire hazards.


5. Will bird/pest proofing damage my roof or solar system?

No. We use non-invasive installation methods that protect both your roof and your solar panels while still providing long-lasting protection.


6. What are signs my solar system needs repair?

Common signs include a drop in energy production, higher electric bills, system alerts, or visible damage. If something seems off, it’s best to have it inspected.


7. Do you service systems you didn’t install?

Yes. We work on existing systems regardless of who installed them.


8. What is included in an energy audit?

Our energy audit includes a review of your system’s performance, inspection of panels and components, and clear recommendations to improve efficiency and savings.


9. When would I need solar panel removal and reinstallation?

This is typically needed for roof repairs or replacement, system upgrades, or to fix issues underneath the panels.


10. How long does removal and reinstallation take?

Most projects can be completed within a few days, depending on the size of the system and the scope of work.


11. Will removing my panels affect my warranty?

When done properly, no. We follow best practices to ensure your system and roof remain protected.
