Typically ranges from $450-$900
Pure-water-only cleaning
Glass House uses only pure water and dedicated brushes designed for solar panels, so the cleaning process avoids chemical risk and stays as gentle as possible.
Included
0 ppm verification
All water is tested before use to confirm it is reading at 0 ppm, helping ensure your panels are left spot-free and clean rather than mineral-spotted after the rinse.
Not Included
Hard debris / construction debris removal
Glass House does not remove hard debris or construction debris from solar panels due to liability and potential damage risk.
PROCESS
Gentle contact, pure water, and verification before the brush ever touches the panel.
This is not a generic exterior rinse. The process is built specifically for solar panels and the kind of spotting and soiling homeowners actually see.
Test the water first
Water is checked before use to ensure it is at 0 ppm. That matters because panel cleaning should not leave mineral spotting behind.
Use dedicated solar brushes
Panels are cleaned with dedicated brushes designed for solar surfaces, helping keep contact gentle and focused on safe soil removal rather than abrasion.
Rinse spot-free
Once the buildup is lifted, the panels are left with pure water only, reducing spotting risk and helping the finished result look clean instead of streaked.
CAPABILITIES
A water-purification setup built to make bad source water usable.
Glass House uses three 41-inch RO filters, paired with a 21-inch DI filter and a 21-inch carbon filter, to bring even 800+ ppm source water all the way down to 0 ppm before it ever touches the panel.
Pure-water filtration system
The filtration train is built to turn difficult source water into panel-safe pure water, which is a big part of why the finish can stay spot-free.
Rooftop and ground-mount residential systems
Residential Solar Panel Cleaning covers rooftop home arrays and ground-mount home systems, with scope adjusted if access or safety conditions require it.
Access and safety boundaries
If a roof is unsafe, wiring appears exposed, panels are cracked, or access conditions are not appropriate, Glass House may decline or modify scope rather than forcing the service.
WHAT THE GUIDANCE SAYS
Manufacturer-side panel guidance supports soft tools, lower-mineral water, and professional handling.
Solar cleaning guidance consistently points away from abrasives, harsh chemicals, dry scraping, and careless roof access. That fits well with a pure-water-only process using soft, dedicated panel brushes.
Soft tools and non-abrasive cleaning
Panel guidance commonly favors soft, non-abrasive tools and warns against abrasive or electric cleaners, rotating brushes, and dry scraping of dirt from the glass.
Water quality matters
Some manufacturer guidance specifically recommends low-mineral water and near-neutral water for cleaning, which is exactly why Glass House verifies 0 ppm before use.
Roof safety matters too
Manufacturer-facing homeowner guidance also reinforces that steep roofs, hard-to-access systems, and riskier arrays are good reasons to use a professional rather than DIY cleaning.
GUARANTEES
Clear guarantees around finish quality and care.
Solar cleaning should be careful, not risky.
Satisfaction Guarantee
If the service does not live up to the Glass House standard of quality, the company stands behind the work with its Satisfaction Guarantee.
No-Scratch, Spot-Free Finish Guarantee
Residential Solar Panel Cleaning is backed by a no-scratch, spot-free finish guarantee built around pure-water cleaning and a gentle panel-specific process.

WHY HOMEOWNERS BOOK
People usually book because the soiling is visible, the output is a concern, or the maintenance has been ignored too long.
Common triggers include visible dust film, pollen, bird droppings, irrigation spotting, dirty rain residue, winter buildup, and concern that the array is not staying as clean or efficient as it should.
Visible buildup
Dust, pollen, droppings, dirty rain, and seasonal grime are what homeowners usually notice first.
Bi-annual maintenance makes sense
Glass House recommends bi-annual maintenance for many systems, with more frequent cleaning where soiling conditions are heavier.
