MYTH BUSTED: "Heavy rains clean your solar panels."

While rain might wash away loose surface dust, it doesn't clean off stubborn residue like lichen, bird droppings, tree sap, or caked-on grime. Leaving these build-ups on your panels blocks sunlight and lowers your solar system's overall efficiency and energy output.

Did you know the space beneath your solar panels is a top target for birds looking to nest?

Before nesting season begins, secure your setup with proper bird-proofing barriers. Protect your wiring, maintain peak energy output, and avoid messy cleanups!

Take a look at this incredible transformation!

Birds had nested beneath these panels, leaving behind a mess of debris and droppings that was severely hurting the system's performance. Our team stepped in to clear out all the nesting material, thoroughly clean the panels and roof space, and fit custom bird proofing to permanently block future unwanted guests.

Now, the entire system is running safely and generating peak solar power once again.

LITTLE REMINDER: Don't forget to Spring Forward today!

Daylight Savings starts today, so set your clocks forward 1 hour! An extra hour of daylight means your solar panels have even more time to soak up the sun and generate energy for your home.

Make sure your system is clean and clear to capture every bit of that extra sunshine!
