Solar panel cleaning in Jeffreys Bay and the Kouga

The work we started with. Still done carefully, by hand.

Who we are

Where Afrikken started

Solar panel cleaning is where Afrikken started, and we still do it. Dust, bird droppings and lichen build up on panels. We clean them off.

We clean for homes and businesses across the Kouga area.

The pair on the right is one panel before and after. The lichen and spots along the bottom edge are gone.

Our method

Why we use deionized water

Deionized water has the minerals and calcium taken out of it. That means it dries without leaving spots or streaks on the glass.

We use it with soft, water-fed brushes, so the panels are cleaned thoroughly without being scratched.

Our process

How we clean, in five steps

  1. Safety first

    Before any work begins, safety comes first. We use the proper gear, including harnesses and fall protection, especially on high roofs.

  2. Visual inspection

    We look over your panels for cracks, loose connections or anything that needs attention before cleaning.

  3. Gentle cleaning and rinse

    A wet-cleaning method with deionized water. Soft water-fed brushes clean the panels without scratching.

  4. Spot check

    We check each panel for streaks, spots or leftover dirt. Anything missed gets extra attention.

  5. Final inspection

    A last check that all panels are clean and safe.
