The Benefits of Window and Solar Panel Cleaning for Energy Efficiency

Kasheim Williams • September 23, 2024

Your home’s windows and solar panels not only affect the appearance of your property but also play a role in energy efficiency. Over time, dirt, dust, and grime accumulate on their surfaces, reducing their effectiveness. Regular cleaning can significantly enhance energy efficiency and extend the life of these features.


1. Improve Solar Panel Efficiency

Solar panels are designed to absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity, but dirt and debris can block this process. Studies show that dirty panels can lose up to 25% of their efficiency. Regular cleaning ensures that they operate at maximum efficiency, helping you get the most out of your solar energy investment.


2. Enhance Natural Light Indoors

Dirty windows can block the amount of natural light entering your home, making rooms feel darker and more reliant on artificial lighting. Clean windows allow sunlight to fill your home, reducing the need for electric lights and contributing to energy savings.


3. Protect Your Investment

Both solar panels and windows are significant investments in your home. Regular cleaning not only maintains their appearance but also prevents the buildup of debris that can cause long-term damage, such as scratching or etching. Proper maintenance ensures that these features last longer and perform at their best.

Oxidation. It's a natural process, but that doesn't mean you have to live with its unsightly effects. If you've noticed your home or business looking a little dull, faded, or chalky, oxidation might be the culprit. But don't worry, Under Pressure Pressure Washing is here to help! What is Oxidation? Oxidation occurs when a material reacts with oxygen, causing a chemical change. In the case of your home's exterior, this often manifests as a loss of color, a chalky residue, or a dull, faded appearance. Commonly affected surfaces include: Vinyl siding: White vinyl siding can turn yellow or brown, while colored siding may appear faded and uneven. Aluminum: Aluminum siding, gutters, and window frames can develop a white, powdery coating. Metal roofs: Metal roofs can lose their shine and become discolored due to oxidation. Painted surfaces: Oxidation can cause paint to chalk, fade, and peel. Why is Oxidation Removal Important? Beyond the aesthetic impact, oxidation can actually damage your property over time. It can weaken materials, making them more susceptible to cracking, chipping, and other damage. By removing oxidation, you not only restore the beauty of your home or business but also help protect it from further deterioration. How Does Under Pressure Pressure Washing Remove Oxidation? We use a combination of specialized cleaning solutions and pressure washing techniques to safely and effectively remove oxidation from various surfaces. Soft Washing: For delicate surfaces like vinyl siding and painted surfaces, we use a gentle soft washing approach. This involves applying a cleaning solution that breaks down the oxidation, followed by a low-pressure rinse. Pressure Washing: For more durable surfaces like metal roofs and aluminum, we may use a higher pressure setting to effectively remove the oxidation. We always take care to use the appropriate pressure to avoid damaging the surface. The Benefits of Professional Oxidation Removal: Restores the original beauty of your property: Say goodbye to dull, faded colors and hello to a vibrant, refreshed look. Protects your investment: Oxidation removal helps prevent further damage and extends the lifespan of your property's exterior. Increases curb appeal: A clean and well-maintained exterior can significantly enhance the curb appeal of your home or business. Saves you time and effort: Leave the hard work to the professionals! We have the experience, equipment, and expertise to get the job done right. Don't let oxidation dull the shine of your home or business.
