Dirty panels cost you money every single day. In Wellington, wind-driven salt spray and grime quietly cut solar output. We restore your system’s performance with specialist equipment — and protect it from bird damage.
Eco Shine Solar services homes throughout Wellington, the Hutt Valley and Porirua, providing professional solar panel cleaning and bird proofing that help protect your system and maximise performance.
Wellington’s wind carries salt spray from the harbour and Cook Strait well inland, and hillside sections shaded by trees are prone to moss and lichen on south-facing arrays.
If your solar panels haven’t been cleaned or checked in a while, we can help.
Wellington gets more sunshine than its reputation suggests, and solar performs well here. But constant wind means constant salt film, city grime settles on the glass, and gulls and pigeons are hard on rooftop systems. A clean system earns more. A neglected one quietly costs you.
We conduct a full pre-clean check of your solar panels, wiring, seals, and more, making sure your system is in top working order.
We clean with reverse osmosis filtered pure water which is recommended by all solar panel manufacturers for a safe and effective clean.
After each clean, we send you an electronic report you can keep on file, detailing your system's current state and registering it's maintenance record.
We send you photos of your panels before and after each clean, and if possible, we send our drone up to give you a full roof inspection!
Well-maintained solar panels can outperform a neglected system by as much as 30%. Regular cleaning will ensure your solar panels are producing at maximum efficiency, reducing your power bill while looking great on your roof!
Much like your car, your solar panels need regular cleaning to ensure they producing at maximum efficiency. Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure your solar panels and system components are working safely and will meet their full potential lifespan.
Dirty solar panels mean less energy is generated. Studies have shown that even a small amount of dirt or debris on your panels can have a significant impact on their production. If you've noticed a gradual drop in energy production, it's time to have your solar panels cleaned.
