MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT SOLAR

-Rain Cleans Panels Enough: Many think rain does the job, but sticky residues like pollen or bird droppings stay, cutting efficiency by 5-20%—cleaning’s still key.
-Cleaning Isn’t Necessary: Some believe dirty panels perform fine, yet buildup can reduce output by 20-30% in dusty areas, making it a must.
-Cleaning Damages Panels: Fear of harm stops people, but proper techniques (soft brushes, no chemicals, and purified water) are safe and beneficial.
-Cleaning’s a One-Time Thing: One clean doesn’t last—quarterly in dusty Oklahoma vs. annually in rainy areas keeps panels humming.
-Anyone Can Do It: DIY looks easy, but improper methods can damage panels or void warranties—pros know best.
-Warranty Stays Intact Without Maintenance: Many miss that warranties can be voided if panels aren’t “maintained properly”—cleaning’s often required.
