Drone solar panel cleaning in Phoenix

Haboob dust and monsoon film, rinsed from the driveway. First visit from $129.

West and central Phoenix do not get a gentle dusting. Haboob silt and monsoon film land on the glass and bake there through a 110-degree afternoon. A light rain does not rinse that off. It spots the coating the way hard water spots a windshield, and the next clear week the array is still down.

On an 8 kW rooftop that loss is real money, especially in the hours APS on-peak rates are supposed to be the panels’ best payday. Dirty glass does not show up as a broken inverter. Monitoring files it under weather. It is a film.

We wash it from the driveway. A Lucid Bots Sherpa lays purified water across the array and never lands on the modules. Nobody puts a ladder against a second-story eave. Deionized water lifts the dust and dries without the mineral rings Phoenix tap water leaves behind.

Most Phoenix 8 kW homes land at 17–22 panels. That first visit is $149. Sixteen panels or fewer is $129. Twenty-three to twenty-eight is $199. The price is for a touch-free wash, not a crew walking the string.

Also serving Glendale, Peoria, and central Phoenix.

How a visit runs

From address to after-photos.

  1. 01

    Site review

    Send photos or an address. We confirm airspace, surfaces, water access, and a safe flight plan before a crew is booked.

  2. 02

    Ground setup

    A compact crew stages from the lot. Tethered water, FAA-compliant flight, and a walkthrough with your site contact.

  3. 03

    Precision wash

    Pilots fly a controlled pattern. Purified water lifts film and grit without brushes grinding dirt into glass or silicon.

  4. 04

    Proof of shine

    You get completion photos, notes on any damage we spotted from the air, and a recommended return interval.

Part 107

Certified remote pilots. Not a weekend hobby.

Every flight is under FAA Part 107, with insurance, a site plan, and the pilot on the ground. If the airspace or the wind is wrong, we wait. We do not put a person on your roof to make the day work.

Questions

Before you book.

Does a Phoenix rain clean the panels?+

No. Rain on haboob dust makes mud. Mud bakes into a film. That is why a wash after monsoon season matters more than a storm in July.

What does a first visit cost in Phoenix?+

$129 for 16 panels or fewer, $149 for 17–22, $199 for 23–28. Twenty-nine or more is a direct quote. Regular prices are higher. This promotional rate is limited.

Do I need to be home?+

Almost never. Dogs inside for the visit. We usually do not need the backyard, depending on where the array faces.
