Dirty solar panels can significantly reduce energy production. Dust, dirt, bird droppings, and other debris block sunlight from reaching the solar cells, decreasing their efficiency. While the exact amount of production loss varies depending on factors such as the extent of dirt buildup and panel orientation, studies suggest that dirty solar panels can experience energy production losses ranging from 10% to 25%. Regular cleaning and maintenance are essential to ensure optimal performance and maximize energy output from your solar panels.

Critter guard is a protective barrier installed under solar panels to prevent animals such as birds, squirrels, and rodents from nesting under the panels and damaging the wiring. Made of durable materials like mesh or wire, critter guard acts as a barrier to deter animals from accessing the space beneath the solar panels. By effectively blocking access, critter guard helps to prevent potential damage to the wiring, ensuring the safety and longevity of your solar energy system.

Yes, moss can cause damage to your roof if left unchecked. Moss tends to thrive in moist, shaded areas of the roof, where it retains moisture and promotes the growth of algae and fungi. Over time, moss can lift shingles, creating gaps where water can seep through and cause leaks. Additionally, moss roots can penetrate and weaken the roof's underlying structure, leading to premature deterioration and costly repairs. Regular roof maintenance, including moss removal and treatment, is crucial to prevent moss-related damage and prolong the lifespan of your roof.
