You invested in solar to save money and help the environment. But here’s what most homeowners in Wildomar don’t realize: dirty panels can cut your energy production by up to 25% without you even noticing.
That’s real money disappearing from your savings every month. Research shows that even a thin layer of dust blocking just 5% of sunlight can reduce your system’s output by 10-25%. In Wildomar’s dry climate with occasional winds and dust, this happens faster than you’d think.
After professional cleaning, most homeowners see their panels jump back to near-original efficiency levels. You’ll notice the difference in your energy bills, and your panels will look like the day they were installed.
We at All Seasons Window Cleaning Inc. have been serving property owners with professional cleaning services, and we understand exactly what Wildomar homeowners face with their solar panels. The mix of sunny days, occasional winds, and dust from surrounding areas creates the perfect storm for panel efficiency loss.
We’re not just another cleaning company trying to expand services. We know how valuable your solar investment is, and we’ve invested in the right equipment and training to protect it. Our team uses professional-grade deionized water systems and soft-bristle techniques that clean thoroughly without risking damage to your panels.
You’ll find us throughout Wildomar neighborhoods, from the hills to newer developments, helping homeowners get the most from their solar systems.
We start with a visual inspection of your entire solar array to identify any issues beyond just dirt buildup. This includes checking for bird nesting, damaged panels, or mounting concerns that could affect performance.
Next, we use pure reverse osmosis deionized water with soft-bristle brushes to gently remove dust, bird droppings, and other debris. This chemical-free approach protects your panels’ anti-reflective coating while delivering a streak-free finish that stays cleaner longer.
We clean both the panels and the mounting hardware, ensuring nothing interferes with your system’s performance. After cleaning, we’ll point out any concerns we noticed and provide recommendations for maintaining peak efficiency between professional cleanings.

Your solar panel cleaning service includes thorough removal of dust, bird droppings, leaves, and ash that accumulate in Wildomar’s climate. We also inspect mounting equipment and connections to ensure everything stays secure and corrosion-free.
Bird problems are especially common in Wildomar, where new developments and water sources attract pigeons and other pest birds. These birds don’t just dirty your panels—they can create fire hazards by building nests near electrical components. We identify these issues and can recommend bird proofing solutions to prevent future problems.
We time our cleaning visits to work with Wildomar’s weather patterns, avoiding the hottest parts of the day when rapid temperature changes could stress your panels. This attention to local conditions helps protect your investment while maximizing cleaning effectiveness.
Solar industry experts recommend cleaning every 6 months for maximum efficiency, but Wildomar’s specific conditions might require more frequent attention. The combination of dry periods, occasional winds, and dust from surrounding areas can build up faster than in other locations.
We typically recommend starting with twice-yearly cleanings and adjusting based on your system’s performance and local conditions. Homes closer to construction, agricultural areas, or major roadways might need quarterly cleanings. Homes in newer developments with less dust exposure might do fine with the standard 6-month schedule.
The key is monitoring your energy production. If you notice a gradual decline that can’t be explained by weather or seasonal changes, it’s probably time for a cleaning.
The biggest differences are safety, equipment, and results. Professional cleaning eliminates the safety risks of working on your roof, especially with wet surfaces and electrical equipment nearby.
We use deionized water that leaves no mineral deposits or streaks, unlike tap water which can actually make panels dirtier over time. Our soft-bristle tools and proper techniques clean thoroughly without scratching the anti-reflective coating that many DIY methods can damage.
Professional cleaning also includes inspection services. We spot potential problems like loose mounting hardware, cracked panels, or bird nesting that homeowners typically miss. Catching these issues early can prevent expensive repairs and maintain your warranty coverage.
Absolutely, and Wildomar’s environment makes bird problems especially common. The area’s mix of water sources, new developments, and agricultural surroundings creates ideal conditions for pigeons and other birds to thrive.
Birds don’t just leave droppings on panels—they build nests underneath that create fire hazards near electrical components. This is particularly concerning in Wildomar’s dry climate where fire risk is already elevated. Bird droppings are also more acidic and harder to remove than regular dust, potentially causing permanent staining if left untreated.
We regularly see efficiency losses of 15-30% from bird-related soiling, plus the health risks from parasites and diseases that bird droppings can carry. Professional cleaning addresses these issues safely and can include bird deterrent recommendations to prevent future problems.
Professional cleaning with proper methods actually helps maintain your warranty coverage. Most solar panel manufacturers require regular maintenance to keep warranties valid, and they specifically recommend professional cleaning over DIY methods.
We use manufacturer-approved cleaning techniques with deionized water and soft-bristle brushes that won’t damage panels or void warranties. Our methods avoid high pressure, harsh chemicals, and abrasive tools that can cause warranty-voiding damage.
In fact, neglecting regular cleaning is more likely to void your warranty than professional maintenance. Accumulated dirt and debris can cause hot spots and other issues that manufacturers consider preventable maintenance problems. Keeping your panels professionally cleaned shows you’re taking proper care of your investment.
Research consistently shows that dirty panels can lose 15-25% efficiency in normal conditions, with losses up to 35% or more in heavily soiled environments. After professional cleaning, most systems return to near-original efficiency levels.
In Wildomar’s climate, we typically see efficiency improvements of 15-30% after cleaning, depending on how long it’s been since the last service. The improvement is usually noticeable in your next energy bill, especially during peak production months.
The key is that this isn’t just a one-time boost. Regular professional cleaning maintains consistently high efficiency, which means more energy production and greater savings over your system’s lifetime. Even a 10% efficiency improvement can translate to hundreds of dollars in additional savings annually for most residential systems.
Wildomar’s unique location creates specific challenges for solar panel owners. The area’s mix of sunny days with occasional winds picks up dust from surrounding agricultural and undeveloped areas, creating faster buildup than many other locations.
The local bird population is particularly problematic due to water sources, new developments, and the agricultural surroundings that provide ideal nesting and feeding conditions. We see more bird-related issues here than in many other areas we serve.
Wildomar’s dry climate also means that dust doesn’t wash off naturally as often as in areas with regular rainfall. When dust does get wet from morning dew, it can actually cement to the panel surface, making it much harder to remove without professional equipment and techniques.
