Donna and Mark from Lexington, Massachusetts experienced dirty solar panels due to bird droppings and dust getting stuck to them. Donna and Mark live near a busy road and many birds like to rest on their home during the day after flying around. Birds like to sit on top of buildings, including theirs and they create bird droppings on their roof. Donna realized after seeing all of the seagulls resting on her home that she may want to get her solar panels cleaned to remove the bird droppings that may have been on their roof. She had no idea that dirty solar panels could cause solar panels to be less efficient. She only learned of this by talking to our technicians while they were there completing the solar panel cleaning. The technicians suggested that she have the solar panels cleaned every 6 months instead of once a year because of the frequency birds tend to go to his roof with the solar panels.
