Solar Panel Cleaning & Critter Guard Installation in Myrtle Beach, SC
Solar Clean Pros provide expert solar panel cleaning services for homeowners, businesses, municipalities, and solar farms in the Myrtle Beach and surrounding areas.
Why Is It Important to Clean Solar Panels?
Whether you're oceanfront or several miles inland, solar panels in Myrtle Beach take a beating from the salt and added humidity in the air. Coastal solar system owners get to reap the benefits of tons of sunlight, but that also means your system is subject to harsher conditions. Over time, the salty air, sand, pollen, and moisture work together and collect on your panels - blocking sunlight and reducing efficiency.
At Solar Clean Pros, we specialize in helping coastal homeowners and businesses keep their solar systems performing at their best. We provide professional, safe solar panel cleaning throughout the greater Mrtyle Beach area. We use pure deionized water and soft-brush cleaning tools to remove grime, residue, and debris without scratching or damaging your panels. Think of all the dirt and grime that builds up on your car when you don't wash it for a while. While rain does some of the work, it simply cannot get everything off, and your solar panels become more and more dirty.
Photovoltaic (PV) soiling is the accumulation of contaminants like dirt, dust, tree sap, pollen, salt, and other debris that accumulate on the surface of your panels. This is why we recommend a regular cleaning for your solar panel system at least once a year to help with:
- Maintain energy production
- Extend the lifespan of your solar panels
- Protect the ROI of your solar investment
- Identify potential issues with regular inspections at each cleaning

Have Questions About Our Solar Panel Cleaning Services?
Do solar panels need to be cleaned?
Absolutely! Over time, your solar panels accumulate dirt, pollen, bird droppings, and other debris that impact sunlight captured by your panels. Having your panels cleaned regularly ensures optimal performance and lifespan.
How often should my solar panels be cleaned?
We recommend cleaning your solar panels once to twice per year, depending on environmental conditions. If you live in an area with heavy dust, pollen, or bird activity, more frequent cleaning may be necessary to maintain optimal performance.
How much does solar panel cleaning cost?
The cost of solar panel cleaning depends on the size of your system and its accessibility. At Solar Clean NC, we provide professional and affordable solar cleaning services tailored to your needs. Contact us today and discover how we can help you save more with clean panels!
What is deionized water?
Deionization is the process in which naturally occuring minerals in a water source are removed via contact with ion exchange resin. This resin is simply a sand-like particle that catches positively or negatively charged minerals as they pass by. When a filter is filled with this resin, water passing through is completely stripped of all contaminants and referred to as pure or DI water.
Why use deionized water?
Water left on the panel surface will evaporate and leave behind mineral deposits or "water spots". Just like your car after a wash, if excess water is not wiped down you will see that same spotting. Deionized water does not have any of these contaminants and can be left to dry without the risk of spotting.
How often should you monitor the efficiency of your panels?
While your raw output depends on many factors, comparing your panel production to the year before helps to remove seasonal variations as a cause for concern. A good habit is to check your panel performance each month as you receive your energy bill. If your production compared to last year is noticeably lower there is likely one or more of these issues: panel soiling, animal damage, component failure.
