Monocrystalline solar panels offers top-tier efficiency and durability. They are a premium investment, boasting an average efficiency of 18% to 23% and a lifespan of 25+ years. They also blend seamlessly with your roof's aesthetics in a sleek black design.

Some examples of Tier 1 brands include Sunsynk, JA Solar, Longi, Trina, Jinko Solar and QCell.

Absolutely, dirty solar panels are less effective. Dust, bird droppings, and debris reduce their efficiency. The panel's efficiency rating assumes optimal cleanliness, so keep them clean for peak performance.

Solar energy prices have dropped by 85% since 2010 in China, thanks to economies of scale and government subsidies. This has ignited a worldwide surge in new installations. In fact, investors are projected to invest more in solar than in oil, which is a positive development for the environment.

Warranty duration depends on the brand and model, typically spanning 10-20 years, with many offering a standard 10-year coverage from the installation date.

Inexpensive solar panels can be lower in quality and have shorter lifespans - so you might pay less up front, but you’d have to replace them much sooner. They might also be less efficient, resulting in lower electricity production compared to pricier options. And, as this is an electric system, there are always other concerns such as fires. It is best to go with quality.

An unused solar backup battery, when properly maintained, can last well over a year. To prevent complete charge loss, it's advisable to use a trickle charger to maintain a partial charge, as letting a battery go completely empty can impair its ability to hold any charge.

Solar panels are constructed to withstand temperatures up to 65 degrees Celsius, a range that typically surpasses typical weather conditions, which rarely exceed 49 degrees Celsius. Direct sunlight is ideal for maximizing energy absorption.

For optimal results, experts advise one thorough clean every year. Research shows it can boost energy output by up to 12%, outperforming panels that are cleaned by rainfall alone.

Rain should be sufficient for cleaning angled solar panels. However, in areas near factories, highways, or farms with frequent dust, you may encounter more dirt than typical systems.

Avoid cleaning with cold water on hot panels which can cause thermal stress and potential glass cracks, and that will void the warranty. Similarly, using high pressure, chemicals, or abrasives can harm the protective coating over time and void the panel warranty as well.

The best time is early in the morning, which should typically be a cool time of day. Washing your panels when the sun is out during the day could lead to watermarks - undoing all your hard work!

Avoid harsh chemicals or power washers for cleaning, as they can harm the anti-reflective coating on the glass. Many solar experts also advise against using soap, as it can leave a film that attracts dirt and potentially damages the anti-reflective coating

Yes, you can clean them yourself. Simply spray the panels with average-pressure water from a well-angled garden hose while staying on the ground. For added cleaning effectiveness, consider using a long-handled squeegee or soft brush along with a medium-pressure hose nozzle.

Caution: Avoid cleaning hot panels with cold water to prevent potential cracking. Also, use only chemicals recommended by the manufacturers.

Vinegar is a safe and effective cleaner for solar panels. It's gentle and won't harm them. Additionally, its natural acidity helps break down dirt and debris, making it a suitable choice for regular maintenance to keep your solar system in top condition.
