Your solar panels are losing efficiency every day they stay dirty. In Redlands, dust from surrounding citrus groves and seasonal pollen creates a film that blocks sunlight from reaching your cells. Most homeowners don’t realize how much money they’re losing until they see their first professional cleaning results.
Clean panels produce up to 30% more power than dirty ones. That’s not a small difference—it’s the difference between your system paying for itself in 7 years versus 10 years. Our customers typically see immediate jumps in energy production the same day we clean their panels.
The math is simple: a single cleaning often pays for itself within 2-3 months through increased energy production. After that, it’s pure savings in your pocket.
All Seasons Window Cleaning Inc. brings over a decade of experience to Redlands solar panel maintenance. We’re NABCEP certified, which means we understand solar systems inside and out—not just cleaning.
When we clean your panels, we’re also checking for potential issues that could cost you thousands later. Loose connections, cracked panels, or mounting problems get spotted before they become expensive repairs. We’ve been serving Redlands homeowners since the solar boom began, watching the city transform from citrus groves to one of California’s most solar-friendly communities.
Our deionized water system eliminates the mineral deposits that regular tap water leaves behind. Those white spots you see after other companies clean? They actually attract more dirt faster. We use purified water that rinses completely clean.
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. We use specialized soft-wash techniques with deionized water that removes dust, bird droppings, and the stubborn buildup that Redlands’ desert-adjacent environment creates. Our water filtration system removes all minerals that would leave spots or residue on your panels.
We also clean the areas around your panels, including mounting hardware and inverters. Desert dust doesn’t just affect the glass—it can clog cooling vents and create hot spots that reduce system lifespan. Finally, we restart your system and verify everything is working properly. Most customers see improved energy production within hours.

Every solar panel cleaning includes a complete system inspection. We’re looking for loose connections, cracked panels, or other issues that could affect performance or safety. This isn’t just about cleaning—it’s about protecting your entire investment.
In Redlands’ 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—if you notice a gradual decline that doesn’t match seasonal changes, it’s time for a cleaning.
Our service covers everything from basic maintenance to bird proofing installation. Redlands homeowners deal with pigeons, sparrows, and other birds that love nesting under solar panels. Bird droppings are acidic and can permanently damage your panels if left untreated. We remove existing nests, clean thoroughly, and install protective barriers that keep birds away without harming them.
In Redlands’ dusty climate, we recommend professional cleaning every 6 months minimum. If you live near citrus groves, agricultural areas, or have trees that attract birds, quarterly cleaning might be necessary.
The key is monitoring your energy production. If you notice a gradual decline that doesn’t match seasonal patterns, it’s time for cleaning. Don’t wait until you’ve lost 20-30% efficiency—that’s money you can’t get back. Most Redlands homeowners find that bi-annual cleaning provides the best balance of cost and performance.
No, when done properly. We use manufacturer-approved cleaning methods and guarantee no damage to your panels or voiding of warranties. Our techniques are specifically designed for photovoltaic systems.
We’re NABCEP certified, meaning we understand solar technology, not just cleaning. Many solar panel warranties actually require regular maintenance, including cleaning, to remain valid. We provide documentation of our service to help protect your warranty coverage.
Our deionized water system and soft-wash techniques meet all major manufacturer specifications. We never use harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, or high-pressure washing that could damage panels or seals.
Residential solar panel cleaning typically runs $200-350 for most Redlands homes, depending on system size, roof accessibility, and how dirty your panels are. We price by the job, not by the hour, so you know exactly what you’ll pay upfront.
Consider that a single cleaning often pays for itself within 2-3 months through increased energy production. Clean panels produce up to 30% more power than dirty ones. The cost of cleaning is minimal compared to the money you lose from reduced efficiency.
We always provide free estimates so you can see exactly what’s involved before we start. Many customers find our regular maintenance packages provide the best value while keeping their panels in excellent condition year-round.
While you can clean panels yourself, professional cleaning is often recommended for safety and effectiveness. Getting on your roof carries real risks, especially with Redlands’ summer heat making roof surfaces dangerously hot.
Professional cleaners have the right equipment and expertise to clean panels safely and effectively. We use deionized water systems that eliminate mineral deposits—something you can’t achieve with garden hoses and tap water. Those white spots left by regular water actually attract more dirt faster.
We also inspect your system during cleaning, spotting potential problems before they become expensive repairs. Loose connections, cracked panels, or mounting issues get caught early when professionals handle the maintenance.
Yes, significantly. Research shows that dust accumulation can reduce solar panel efficiency by 30-40% in areas like Redlands. That’s not a small difference—it directly impacts how much money your system saves you each month.
In Redlands’ climate, dust from citrus groves, seasonal pollen, and general desert conditions creates a film that blocks sunlight from reaching your solar cells. Even a light coating that looks minor can block significant energy production. Bird droppings are even worse, creating hot spots that can permanently damage panels.
The financial impact adds up quickly. If your system normally saves you $150 per month, a 30% efficiency loss means you’re only saving $105. That $45 monthly difference costs you $540 per year—far more than professional cleaning.
Our deionized water system is the biggest difference. Most cleaning companies use tap water, which leaves mineral deposits that actually attract more dirt. Our purified water rinses completely clean, keeping your panels cleaner longer.
We’re also NABCEP certified, meaning we understand solar systems, not just cleaning. We spot potential problems during cleaning that could save you thousands in repairs later. Loose connections, cracked panels, or mounting issues get caught before they become major problems.
Finally, we specialize in Redlands’ unique conditions. Desert-adjacent dust isn’t like regular dirt—it requires specific techniques and equipment to remove completely without damage. We’ve been serving Redlands solar owners for over a decade and understand exactly what your panels face in this climate.
