You invested in solar to save money, but dirty panels in Riverside’s dust-heavy environment are costing you hundreds in lost energy production every year. Professional cleaning doesn’t just make your panels look better—it restores the efficiency you paid for.
Clean panels absorb maximum sunlight instead of struggling through layers of dust, bird droppings, and debris that accumulate from Santa Ana winds and nearby agricultural areas. When your system runs at full capacity, your energy bills drop and your return on investment improves immediately.
The difference is measurable. Most Riverside homeowners see their energy production jump back up within days of professional cleaning, often recovering 15-30% of lost efficiency that built up gradually over months.
All Seasons Window Cleaning Inc. has been serving Riverside County homeowners for years, and we understand exactly what your solar panels face here. The combination of agricultural dust, Santa Ana winds, and bird activity creates specific challenges that generic cleaning approaches can’t handle effectively.
We’re fully licensed and insured, treating every job with the care your investment deserves. Our team uses purified water systems and eco-friendly cleaning agents specifically designed for solar panels—no harsh chemicals that could damage your expensive equipment.
Local families trust us because we show up when promised, work safely on their roofs, and deliver results they can actually measure in their energy bills. That’s the kind of reliability Riverside homeowners expect, and it’s what we’ve built our reputation on.
We start with a visual inspection to assess the level of soiling and identify any potential issues like bird nesting or debris buildup. This helps us determine the best cleaning approach for your specific situation and catch problems before they become expensive repairs.
Next, we carefully remove any loose debris, bird droppings, and accumulated dust using specialized tools designed for solar equipment. We use purified water and gentle cleaning agents that won’t leave residue or damage your panels’ protective coating.
After cleaning, we rinse everything thoroughly with deionized water that dries spot-free, leaving your panels crystal clear and ready to capture maximum sunlight. We also provide before and after photos so you can see exactly what we accomplished—especially important since most homeowners can’t safely access their roof-mounted panels to inspect the results themselves.

Our comprehensive solar panel cleaning service addresses the specific challenges Riverside homeowners face. We remove the dust, pollen, and debris that accumulate from agricultural activities and seasonal winds, plus handle the bird droppings and nesting materials that are common problems in our area.
Every cleaning includes a thorough inspection of your mounting system and panels to catch potential issues early. We also offer bird proofing solutions to prevent future nesting problems that can damage equipment and reduce efficiency over time.
Riverside’s dry climate and frequent dust storms mean your panels need attention more often than in other areas. We recommend cleaning every 6 months to maintain optimal performance, though panels near agricultural areas or with heavy bird activity may benefit from quarterly service. Our scheduling is flexible, and we work around your schedule to minimize disruption.
In Riverside’s dusty environment, we recommend professional solar panel cleaning every 6 months for optimal performance. Our area’s combination of agricultural dust, Santa Ana winds, and limited rainfall means debris accumulates faster than in many other regions.
Panels near agricultural areas, busy roads, or with heavy bird activity may need quarterly cleaning to maintain peak efficiency. The key is monitoring your energy production—if you notice a gradual decline over several months, it’s likely time for cleaning even if you’re not due for regular service.
Regular maintenance isn’t just about maximizing energy output. It also helps protect your warranty, prevent permanent staining or etching from bird droppings, and extend the overall lifespan of your solar investment.
Yes, absolutely. In Riverside’s conditions, dirty solar panels commonly lose 15-30% of their energy production capacity, and we’ve seen cases where heavily soiled panels were operating at less than 70% efficiency.
The problem builds gradually, so many homeowners don’t notice the decline until it’s significant. Dust particles, bird droppings, and debris create shadows and barriers that prevent sunlight from reaching the photovoltaic cells effectively. Even a thin layer of dust can reduce output by 5-10%.
What makes this particularly costly in Riverside is our high solar potential—when panels are clean, they should be producing substantial energy most days of the year. Every percentage point of lost efficiency translates directly to higher electric bills and reduced return on your solar investment.
We strongly recommend against DIY solar panel cleaning, especially for roof-mounted systems. The safety risks of working on roofs, combined with the potential for expensive damage to your solar equipment, make professional cleaning the smarter choice.
Solar panels require specific cleaning techniques and materials. Using the wrong tools, chemicals, or water pressure can scratch the glass, damage anti-reflective coatings, or even crack panels. These mistakes can void warranties and cost thousands in repairs.
Professional cleaners have the proper equipment, insurance, and expertise to clean panels safely and effectively. We also provide documentation of proper maintenance that may be required for warranty claims, plus we can spot potential problems during cleaning that homeowners typically miss.
Our comprehensive service includes removal of all debris, dust, bird droppings, and accumulated grime using purified water and eco-friendly cleaning agents specifically designed for solar equipment. We inspect mounting hardware and panels for potential issues during every visit.
You’ll receive before and after photos showing the cleaning results, which is especially valuable since most homeowners can’t safely access their roof-mounted panels to see the difference. We also provide documentation of service for warranty purposes.
If we discover bird nesting, damaged components, or other issues during cleaning, we’ll alert you immediately and can often address minor problems on the spot. For Riverside customers dealing with persistent bird problems, we also offer humane bird deterrent solutions to prevent future nesting and damage.
Professional solar panel cleaning costs vary based on system size, accessibility, and specific cleaning requirements, but most Riverside homeowners find the investment pays for itself quickly through improved energy production.
We provide free estimates that account for your specific situation—roof pitch, panel configuration, level of soiling, and any special challenges like bird nesting or hard water stains. Our pricing is transparent with no hidden fees, and we often find ways to bundle services for better value.
The cost of professional cleaning is typically a fraction of what you lose in energy production from dirty panels over 6-12 months. When you factor in the warranty protection, safety benefits, and peace of mind that comes with professional service, most customers consider it essential maintenance rather than an optional expense.
Yes, we provide comprehensive bird proofing solutions specifically designed for solar panel installations. Bird nesting under panels is a common problem in Riverside, causing damage to equipment, reduced efficiency from droppings, and expensive cleanup requirements.
Our bird deterrent systems use humane methods like mesh barriers and deterrent spikes that prevent nesting without harming wildlife. These solutions are designed to work with your specific panel configuration and roof layout for maximum effectiveness.
Bird proofing is often most cost-effective when combined with regular cleaning service, since we can install deterrents during maintenance visits and monitor their effectiveness over time. Many customers find this prevents recurring problems and reduces long-term maintenance costs significantly compared to dealing with bird damage after it occurs.
