The Back Story

When we were tasked with cleaning over 2000+ panels down at a grain store company in Bendigo we leaped at the challenge. We had no idea (until we arrived at the site) just how dirty they would be. They looked liked they had never been cleaned before but, shockingly, we learnt that the had been cleaned within the last 6 months! Due to their location near the grain stores they had just become incredibly dirty, thick with layers of dust.

Project Challenge

We had set ourselves a huge challenge for our team, to complete this cleaning in one day. Due to the level of dirt on the panels we had to make sure we spent enough time on each panel to remove all of the dust and debris. Another challenge for us was that we did not have a water source near by. We arrived prepared with our large water tank and pump, ready to clean the panels! We had an early start and just about finished before the sun had set!

Project Result

The team achieved an amazing result using our specialised solar brushes. The difference was incredible! The client reported a massive increase in output after the clean and the pictures will tell you why. The panels were a completely different colour after cleaning! We are booked in to see these guys again after another few months.
