Dirty panels lose power. Learn why solar panel cleaning is key to keeping your solar system efficient with MOWZA Solar in Durban.

Solar panels are built to last — but like anything exposed to the elements, they need a little TLC.
In Durban’s coastal climate, your panels are exposed to:
Dust and pollen
Bird droppings
Salt air and humidity
Over time, this buildup blocks sunlight and reduces your system’s performance — sometimes by as much as 20%.
At MOWZA Solar, we offer full solar maintenance and cleaning packages to keep your system running efficiently, year-round.

FAQs:
Q: How often should I clean my panels?

Q: Can I clean them myself?
A: It’s possible, but professional cleaning is safer and more effective. We use the right tools and techniques to avoid damage.
Q: Does cleaning really make a difference?
A: Yes. Clean panels = more sunlight = more power and savings.
