Places on the East coast that receive a much higher amount of rainfall per year see an average of 1% degradation of power due to dust and debris, with the highest reaching 4.7%. In Southern California and especially Ventura County, not only do we see a worse average degradation of power but we also see higher degradation of powers up to 6.2%.
The 6.2% degradation over each panel will accumulate to greater losses in energy production and a greater loss in potential money saved. Having your solar panel cleaning in Ventura done by companies like Kelly Cleaning will ensure that you are making the most out of your solar panels.
With California and Ventura County’s seemingly annual drought and sadly more than common wildfire, these factors play a role in your potential energy production. We recommend that you clean your panels yearly in order to reset your panels to from-factory levels of production.
Go look at your solar panels or see your monthly energy production to see if there is a difference from when you first had them installed. If you need solar panel cleaning in Ventura or if you are ever in doubt Kelly Cleaning will visit your location and recommend the best cleaning solution for your panels.
