Clean solar panels don’t just look better—they perform dramatically better. Studies show dirty panels can lose 15-25% of their energy production capability, which hits commercial operations hard when you’re dealing with wide energy demands and rising electricity costs.
When your panels are clean, you’re looking at immediate improvements. Our customers regularly see 20% increases in production right after professional cleaning. That’s real money back in your pocket, especially when you consider that even a 1% reduction in power from a large solar project can cost $200,000 in lost revenue annually.
Your solar system represents a major investment. Clean panels don’t just maximize your current returns—they extend the life of your entire system, potentially giving you 20-25 years of peak performance instead of watching efficiency slowly decline due to accumulated grime and dust.
We’ve been serving California’s solar cleaning needs for over 10 years. We’re fully bonded and insured, giving you complete protection and peace of mind when we’re working on your valuable solar investment.
We understand Mecca’s unique challenges. The desert climate here means dust, agricultural particles, and seasonal debris that can cement onto your panels through the dew cycle. Many repeat customers trust us because we know how to handle the specific soiling conditions that affect solar installations in Riverside County’s agricultural and industrial areas.
Our OSHA Safety Certified team uses commercial-grade equipment designed specifically for large-scale solar cleaning. Whether you’re running a solar farm, agricultural operation, or commercial rooftop system, we have the experience and equipment to handle thousands of panels efficiently and safely.
First, we conduct a comprehensive site assessment and thermal scan to identify any performance issues or damage before we begin. This helps us spot potential problems early and ensures we’re addressing the right areas for maximum impact.
Next, we use tested deionized water and specialized rotating brushes designed specifically for solar panels. No harmful chemicals that could void your warranty—just pure water that acts like a dirt magnet, removing even stubborn cemented dust and debris without leaving mineral deposits or streaks.
Finally, we perform a visual inspection of your entire array, checking for signs of corrosion, damage, or other issues that could affect long-term performance. You get a clean system and a professional assessment of your solar investment’s condition, so you know exactly where you stand.

Our commercial solar cleaning service covers everything from ground-mounted solar farms to rooftop installations and carport systems. We handle agricultural solar arrays, utility-scale installations, and commercial rooftop systems throughout Mecca and Riverside County.
In Mecca’s climate, we typically recommend cleaning every 3-6 months. The agricultural activity, desert dust, and seasonal conditions here create specific challenges that require regular attention. Summer months are particularly tough, with increased dust and minimal rain to naturally clean your panels.
We’re equipped to clean thousands of panels quickly and thoroughly using boom lifts for hard-to-reach areas and specialized equipment for ground-mounted arrays. Our service includes adding your company as an additional insured on our policy, giving you extra protection during the cleaning process.
For most commercial installations in Mecca, we recommend cleaning every 3-6 months. The desert climate and agricultural activity in Riverside County create specific challenges that require regular attention.
During summer months, dust accumulation accelerates due to the dry conditions and minimal rainfall. Agricultural operations nearby can contribute rice farming dust and other particles that cause some of the highest power losses—up to 76% in extreme cases. The cementation process that occurs when panels cool at night and attract morning dew literally cements soiling onto the surface, making it much harder to remove if left too long.
If your installation is near highways, industrial activities, or active farmland, you might need more frequent cleaning. We can help you develop a customized maintenance schedule based on your specific location and the environmental factors affecting your panels.
We use tested deionized water with specialized rotating brushes designed specifically for solar panel cleaning. This method is safe, effective, and protects your warranty.
Deionized water has all mineral particles removed, making it act like a dirt magnet while leaving no streaks, spots, or mineral deposits behind. We never use harmful chemicals or soaps that could potentially void your solar panel warranty or damage the anti-reflective coatings.
Our commercial-grade equipment includes Sola-Tech C1000 rotating brushes and boom lifts for hard-to-reach installations. This allows us to clean thousands of panels efficiently while maintaining the gentle touch needed to preserve your panels’ integrity and performance over their 25+ year lifespan.
Most of our customers see immediate improvements in energy production, with many experiencing 20% or higher increases right after professional cleaning. The exact improvement depends on how much soiling had accumulated and your specific environmental conditions.
Studies show that dirty solar panels typically lose 15-25% of their energy production capability. In agricultural areas like Mecca, certain types of dust can cause even greater losses—rice farming dust, for example, can reduce output by up to 76% when heavily accumulated.
The financial impact is significant. Even a 1% reduction in power output from a 150 MW solar project can result in $200,000 in lost revenue annually. When you consider that cleaning restores panels to near-peak performance almost immediately, the return on investment for professional cleaning becomes very clear, especially for commercial-scale installations.
While rain helps, it’s not sufficient for maintaining peak performance in Mecca’s climate. The desert conditions and limited rainfall mean you can’t rely on weather alone to keep your commercial solar investment operating efficiently.
Rain actually creates part of the problem. When panels cool down at night and attract morning dew, dust goes through a cementation process where soiling literally becomes cemented onto the panel surface. Once this happens, even strong rain won’t remove it effectively.
Additionally, raindrops collect pollutants on their way down, including salt, chemicals, soot, and acids. In areas with agricultural activity, industrial operations, or wildfire season, rain can actually deposit more contaminants on your panels. Professional cleaning with deionized water and proper equipment is the only way to ensure your panels maintain their maximum efficiency and protect your investment.
Yes, we’re fully bonded and insured, and we can add your company as an additional insured entity (AIE) on our insurance policy for extra protection during the cleaning process.
Our comprehensive insurance covers potential damage to your solar installation and provides liability protection for our work on your property. This gives you complete peace of mind when we’re working on your valuable solar investment.
We’re also OSHA Safety Certified for boom lift operations and specialized commercial cleaning work. Our team follows strict safety protocols for working on large-scale installations, whether they’re ground-mounted solar farms, rooftop systems, or carport installations. Safety and protection are built into every aspect of our service.
Absolutely. We’re equipped to clean thousands of panels quickly and thoroughly using commercial-grade equipment designed for large-scale operations. Our experience includes solar farms, agricultural installations, and utility-scale projects throughout California.
We use specialized equipment including boom lifts for rooftop and carport systems, rotating brush systems for ground-mounted arrays, and can even deploy robotic cleaning systems for massive installations. Our team has the experience and equipment to handle projects ranging from small commercial rooftops to multi-thousand panel agricultural solar farms.
Each large project includes comprehensive thermal scanning to ensure your system is operating at peak performance, visual inspection for potential issues, and a customized maintenance schedule based on your specific environmental conditions and operational needs. We understand that downtime costs money, so we work efficiently to minimize any impact on your energy production.
