You installed solar panels to save money and reduce your energy bills. But here’s what most Norco homeowners don’t realize: those panels are probably producing 15-30% less energy than they should be right now.
Desert dust doesn’t just sit on your panels—it cements itself to the glass through morning dew cycles. What looks like a light coating is actually blocking significant sunlight from reaching your cells. Every day this continues is lost production you can never recover.
Clean panels start making you money immediately. Most homeowners see the energy increase pay for the cleaning service within 2-3 months. Your monitoring app will show the difference within days, often with same-day production jumps that prove the cleaning worked.
We’ve been serving Norco and surrounding areas for over 10 years. We’re not just another cleaning company that happens to clean solar panels—we’re NABCEP certified, meaning we understand how solar systems actually work.
This matters because we can spot potential problems during cleaning that could save you thousands in repairs later. Loose connections, cracked panels, clogged inverter vents—issues that other cleaners miss because they don’t understand what they’re looking at.
We’re also fully bonded and insured, with a damage guarantee that protects your investment. Norco residents trust us because we treat their homes with the same care we’d want for our own families.
First, we inspect your system and shut it down safely. No risks, no shortcuts. We know exactly how to work around solar equipment without causing damage or voiding warranties.
Next comes the cleaning itself using our specialized deionized water system. This isn’t a garden hose situation. Our water filtration removes all minerals that would leave spots or residue on your panels. Most cleaning companies use tap water, which actually leaves deposits that attract more dirt.
We clean each panel systematically, removing dust, bird droppings, and the stubborn buildup that Norco’s desert environment creates. We also clean around your panels, including mounting hardware and inverters, because desert dust affects every component.
Finally, we restart your system and verify everything works properly. You’ll often see an immediate jump in energy production the same day. Every cleaning includes a complete system inspection, so you know exactly what condition your investment is in.

Norco’s 280+ sunny days per year make solar panels a smart investment, but they also create unique cleaning challenges. Desert dust isn’t like regular dirt—it requires specific techniques and equipment to remove completely without damage.
Our deionized water system is the biggest difference you’ll notice. While other companies leave mineral deposits that actually attract more dirt, our purified water rinses completely clean. Your panels stay cleaner longer, extending the time between services.
In Norco’s desert climate, we recommend cleaning every 6 months minimum. Some homes near agricultural areas or with bird activity need quarterly cleaning. The key indicator is your energy production—if you notice gradual declines that don’t match seasonal changes, it’s time for cleaning.
Professional cleaning costs $150-500 but protects a $15,000+ investment. When you factor in the efficiency gains from proper techniques, the math is clear. Don’t wait until you’ve lost 20-30% efficiency—that’s money you can’t get back.
Most Norco homeowners are shocked to learn they’re losing 15-30% of their energy production to dust buildup. In extreme cases, we’ve restored panels that had lost 40% of their efficiency.
This isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about money. A typical Norco home with a $25,000 solar system could be losing $1,500-3,000 annually in energy production. Desert dust accumulation happens faster than most homeowners realize, and what looks like light coating can block significant sunlight from reaching your cells.
Your system’s monitoring app will show you exactly how much production increases after cleaning, usually within days of service.
You can, but most homeowners shouldn’t attempt DIY solar panel cleaning. It involves working on your roof with specialized equipment and knowledge of electrical systems. One mistake can void your warranty or cause thousands in damage.
More importantly, improper cleaning often makes things worse. Using tap water leaves mineral deposits that attract more dirt. Wrong cleaning products can damage the anti-reflective coating. Excessive pressure can crack cells or seals.
Professional cleaning protects your investment and uses techniques that keep panels cleaner longer. When you factor in the safety risks and potential for costly mistakes, professional service is the smart choice for most Norco homeowners.
In Norco’s desert climate, we recommend cleaning every 6 months minimum. Some homes need quarterly cleaning, especially if you’re near agricultural areas or have trees that attract birds.
The key indicator is your energy production monitoring. If you notice gradual declines that don’t match seasonal changes, it’s time for cleaning. Don’t wait until you’ve lost 20-30% efficiency—that’s money you can never recover.
Desert dust cementation happens through morning dew cycles, making removal more difficult over time. Regular cleaning prevents this buildup and keeps your system operating at peak efficiency year-round.

Absolutely. Clean panels in Norco typically see 15-30% production increases immediately after cleaning. Your system’s monitoring app will show the difference within days, often with same-day production jumps.
The energy increase usually pays for the cleaning service within 2-3 months. Every day your panels stay dirty is lost production you can’t recover, so the sooner you clean them, the sooner you start maximizing your investment.
We restart your system after cleaning and verify everything works properly, so you can see the results immediately on your monitoring system.
Professional cleaning costs $150-500 but protects a $15,000+ investment while delivering immediate efficiency gains. When you factor in the safety risks, potential warranty issues, and specialized equipment needed, professional service offers clear value.
