Home/Solar Panel Cleaning/Warranty Safe Cleaning
Serving Hesperia and the High DesertSolar Cleaning That Keeps Your Warranty
Purified water, a soft brush, and feet that never touch a panel. $7 a panel.
Every panel maker publishes cleaning rules, and they all say the same three things: no abrasives, no harsh chemicals, no pressure washers. Most of them also say not to walk on the modules. Our method is built around those rules, which is why the warranty question has a short answer.
What touches your panels and what does not
Purified water only
Deionized water carries no minerals, so it dries with nothing left behind. No soap, no rinse aid, no chemicals that could react with the anti reflective coating.
Soft brush on a pole
A soft bristle brush on a water fed pole, worked from the roof edge or the ground. No scrapers, no scouring pads, no pressure washer.
Nobody on the modules
We work from the roof deck beside the array, not on it. Standing on a panel can microcrack cells that still look fine from the ground.
What installers and panel makers ask for
The maintenance sections of the big manufacturers' manuals read almost alike: clean with water and a soft cloth or brush, no abrasive materials, no high pressure, avoid cleaning a hot panel with cold water. Some installers add their own line about not walking on the array. We follow all of it, and we clean early in the morning when panels are cool for the same reason the manuals give.
What voids warranties in practice is damage: cracked glass from a boot, scratched coating from a scrub pad, a corroded connector from a pressure washer forcing water into a junction box. None of those happen with a soft brush and purified water.
The visit, and what we look for while we are up there
Every panel washed row by row and left to dry spot free. Nothing to wipe, because purified water leaves no minerals. If we notice anything visible while we are there, like cracked glass, lifted flashing or birds under the panels, we point it out. Birds under the panels are the most common thing we find.
If we find something, you get a photo and a plain explanation. If it is birds, pigeon proofing includes the panel wash free, so nothing you paid today is wasted.
What it costs
$7 a panel, any roof pitch, any panel size. A 20 panel array is $140. Panels are counted from the street or from your solar app, close is fine, and we confirm on site. Book on our website and the first visit is 10% off.
Every 3 months on a plan is 25% off each visit after the first, which is what we suggest for arrays near open desert or sprinklers.

Window cleaning $149 / $249
The base price covers 10 to 12 windows on a single story or 18 to 20 on a two story. Past that it's more glass, more screens and more tracks to do right, so it's a flat $39 more, single or two story.
One flat $49 for every window inside the house, with the tracks vacuumed and wiped dry. Most companies charge by the window for inside work. We're already there with the water and the tools, so doing the inside costs you far less than a separate visit.
Big custom homes vary a lot. Extra panes and screens are counted on site or from a satellite view, and inside and out can run $499 to $599 on some homes. You get the exact price from Tony before anything starts, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get. More light in every room, a clear view, screens and tracks that slide the way they should, and glass that lasts because hard water never gets the chance to etch it.
Why now. Dust and sprinkler overspray build up fast up here. A cleaning every 3 to 6 months keeps hard water from setting into the glass.
Pigeon proofing $450+
Cheaper crews screw or bolt mesh into the panel frame or the roof. Every hole is a spot for water and a reason for a solar company to deny a warranty claim. Our clips grip the inner lip of the frame, hold in High Desert wind, and come off clean if a panel ever needs service.
Pick one so the price is right. A two story home adds $125.
$450 covers up to 12 panels. Each panel past that means more mesh, more clips, more cleanout under the array and one more panel to wash, so it's $50 a panel. Set your count in the panel box below.
2 to 3 spinners come free. A spinner's flash covers the side of the roof it faces, and a ridge blocks it, so bigger roofs or roofs with birds on both sides usually need one more. Tap "See what the spinners do" to watch it in 3D.
What you get. Birds out from under the panels, nests and droppings hauled away and the area sanitized so the smell goes too, panels washed, mesh clipped to the frame so nothing voids your panel warranty, and a lifetime workmanship warranty on the install, in writing.
Why now. Nests only get bigger. The longer the birds stay, the more there is to clean out, and the more droppings sit on the roof and the wiring.
Solar panel cleaning $7 a panel
What you get. Clean panels, and if we notice anything visible while we're up there, like a cracked panel or birds moving in, we point it out. $7 a panel, dried spot free.
Why now. There's almost no rain up here to rinse panels, so the dust stacks up and your output drops a little more every month.
Window screen repair per screen
Standard insect screening prioritizes airflow and a clearer outward view. We reuse a sound, suitable frame.
All-Weather Solar-Control Mesh is durable, pet-resistant vinyl-coated polyester for additional shading. It can reduce direct solar heat and glare; the denser weave also changes outward visibility, airflow and incoming light.
What you get. Air in and bugs out, a clearer view from inside, screens that pop in and out easily, and the scope explained in writing.
Why now. UV runs about nine months a year up here. Builder mesh goes brittle, then the wind finishes it off.
Hard water removal from $12 a pane
Hard water is minerals bonded to the glass, so each pane is treated and polished by hand, pane by pane. We test one pane free first so you see the result before you decide on the rest.
Roof soft wash from $599

When your promos change, we take the old sticker off clean and put the new one up straight while we're there, $10 a sticker. You bring the stickers, we handle the glass.

How to tell it's time
- Windows. Spots when the sun hits the glass, screens that look gray, or more than 6 months since the last clean.
- Solar panels. No wash in the last 6 months, or a sunny day in your solar app reading lower than it used to.
- Pigeons. Birds on the roof, droppings on the tile or driveway, cooing under the panels, or a sharp ammonia smell in the heat. They don't leave on their own.
- Screens. Tears, holes, mesh that bows out of the frame or crumbles when you press it.

How we clean your panels
- Purified deionized water and a soft brush on a water fed pole.
- Nobody walks on your panels. The pole reaches every row.
- Dries spot free, with no mineral film left blocking light.
- Visible issues pointed out. A twenty panel home is usually $140 to $160.
Warranty and cleaning questions
Will cleaning my solar panels void the warranty?
Not the way we do it. Manufacturers ask for water, a soft brush, no abrasives, no chemicals and no pressure washing, and that is our whole method. What voids warranties is damage, and a soft brush with purified water does not cause any.
Do you walk on the panels?
No. We work from the roof deck beside the array with a water fed pole. Stepping on a module can microcrack cells that still look perfect from the ground.
Why purified water instead of tap water?
Tap water up here is hard. It dries into white mineral spots that block light, which is the problem you were trying to fix. Deionized water has nothing in it, so the panel dries clear with nothing to wipe.
Do you use soap or any cleaner?
No. Soap leaves a film and some cleaners react with anti reflective coatings. Purified water and agitation from the brush lift desert dust and bird droppings without anything else.
Can you tell if there is damage while cleaning?
Yes, anything we can see while we clean: cracked glass, lifted flashing or birds nesting under the array. We point it out. We do not inspect or repair the electrical system. You get a photo and a straight answer, not a sales pitch.
