Regular solar servicing keeps your system at its best

To ensure the longevity of your rooftop solar system, and to keep it operating at its best, it’s recommended that you get your solar system serviced at least every one to two years. We can help.

Solar servicing FAQ

Solar panels are relatively easy to clean, especially if you do it regularly – at least two to four times a year. 

All you need is a soft brush and some soapy water (using a mild soap). Brushing gently should remove most dirt, debris and bird droppings. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes. If you aren’t sure whether or not your soap is too harsh, err on the side of caution and clean without. 

No, avoid using a pressure washer to clean your solar system – it could damage the sensitive cells inside your PV panels. If the panels are dirty and you can’t get them clean with mild soap and water, contact our servicing team for assistance. 

Aim to get your solar panels professionally serviced at least every year or two. 

Solar panels are designed to live outdoors, in all weather. In most cases, they should resist damage from bad weather, including hail stones up to the size of a golf ball.  

If you ever notice damage after a particularly rare, powerful storm, contact the Think team as soon as possible to come take a look. 

Faulty parts and problems with the installation would generally both be covered under your product warranty (from the manufacturer) and 10-year workmanship warranty from Think Renewable. The service itself would not be.
