What we do
Solar panels are self-cleaning in theory and dirty in practice. Dust, pollen, bird droppings, and the film left by our dry season all cut how much light reaches the cells, and a dirty array can lose a real chunk of its output before you ever notice the dip on your bill. The Squeegee Crew cleans panels with purified water and soft tools that won't scratch the glass or void your warranty — and the production usually bounces right back.
We clean with deionized, purified water and soft brushes — no harsh detergents, no abrasive pads, and nothing that would scratch the anti-reflective coating or void a manufacturer warranty.
Most arrays are reached with a water-fed pole from a safe position rather than walking the panels, which protects both the panels and us.
Bird droppings and hard mineral spots get the most attention because those are the deposits that block the most light and bake on hardest in the sun.

Crew showed up same day, and the windows are spotless inside and out. You can't even tell there's glass anymore. Best window cleaners in Ventura, hands down.

Driveway and patio look brand new. They were careful around our plants and cleaned everything up before leaving. Fair price too.

Our stucco went from dingy to bright with their soft wash. No damage, no streaks — just a house that looks ten years younger.

Questions
Solar Panel Cleaning FAQs
Does cleaning solar panels really increase output?
Yes, often noticeably. A film of dust, pollen, and droppings blocks light from reaching the cells, and heavy soiling can cut output meaningfully. Cleaning removes that layer and production typically rebounds right after.
Will cleaning void my panel warranty?
Not the way we do it. We use purified water and soft brushes with no abrasives or harsh chemicals, which is exactly what panel manufacturers recommend. Aggressive scrubbing or the wrong cleaner is what causes trouble.
How often should solar panels be cleaned?
Once or twice a year suits most homes on the Central Coast, where the long dry season lets dust build up. Homes near ag fields, heavy trees, or lots of birds often benefit from more frequent cleaning.
