2015 Looking Back
Ok, we have come to the end of another year, this is two years for SolarCleaner Australia on the Gold Coast!
2015 brought me in contact with the "Latest" in Technology of Solar Cleaning, and I can confidently say that I am the First and Only Solar Cleaner on the Gold Coast to put this Technology to work with success on my customers Panels! #alphaecosolar
I also linked up with a Solar Electrician to help service my customers better, and compete with Electrical Companies that are cleaning Solar Panels as well.
Also I had the pleasure of linking up with some other Solar Panels Cleaners through out the State, and after Completion of meeting and talks, Have been able to help "Solar Gleam Gutter Clean" - Michael from Gatton, to be able to offer his customers the LATEST in Technology for Solar Cleaning!
So in Short in 2015 I have been able to acquire the BEST practice for maintaining your Solar on the Gold Coast, and able to keep my Same Price or some times even cheaper! Starting from $6 per Panel!
I have also through WEE PLUMB helped over 500 customers on the Gold Coast be able to have a HEALTHIER toilet experience though the installations of Electronic Bidet Seats.
I have learnt alot over the past year about different Brands and Fitting onto Different Toilets.
I have found that 99% of the time I can find a bidet to suite your Toilet Pan, if not I can offer a Solution!
2016 Looking Forward
Bucqi - I can now reward you with 20% Bucqs (Bucks) on your invoice!
Solar has a long way to go, and there is still alot of education to get out, so I am looking forward to again maintaining all of my customers i have acquired over the last two years, and looking forward to helping many more in the next 12 months to maximize their Solar Returns!
WEE PLUMB - Bidets on the Go!
I am looking forward to meeting alot of new and interesting customers, and Helping even more provide a Healthier Toilet Experience!

Holidays
Again I have had the pleasure of having my two boys for the Christmas holidays. My eldest son is 16 and has his learners licence so he has been my limousine driver for the last week 😀 I also acquired my nephew for two weeks shoe and my youngest have been keeping each other company. It's great to be able to spend quality time with them all.

Q & A Time 20/12/15
Q - How much do you actually gain by cleaning your Solar Panels?
A - The Results I am achieving on the Gold Coast over the last 2 years vary
12 Monthly Cleans are gaining between 5-10% Improvement on Average over 12 Mths.
6 Monthly Cleans have gained 20 - 28% improvement on Average over 12 Mths.
Alpha Eco Solar Clean Program has results of 20 - 28% Improvement on Average over 12 Mths.
Q - What do you use to clean my Solar Panels?
A - A standard clean consists of cleaning your Panels with Demineralised Water through a filter system, and using a window brush to avoid scratching the Panels. Then a final wipe over with a Norwex Tile Mop, this helps to get that last little bit of dirt off. Then a wipe over with a microfiber cloth to get the dirt that runs to the bottom of the Panels during the process.
- Alpha Eco Solar Clean and Application is the same three stages as a standard clean with an extra stage to apply the Alpha Eco Solar (Nano Coating) to not only keep your Panels clean for the 3 years time frame, But also an added protection to help the life of the Panels.
Q - How often should I get my Panels Cleaned?
A - In your Owners Manual provided by your Installer it should state that you need to maintain and clean your panels at least every 12 months, this is also a condition of warranty!
Q - Maintenance of Panels?
A - The Panels are secured to your roof with mechanical fixings, these come lose from the expansion and contraction by the heat! these need to be checked and tightened to avoid lose Panels.
- The Cables under your Panels are generally fixed with cable ties, these also break over time allowing your cables to lay on your roof, this causes deterioration of the cable by the sun and could also be a hazard on a metal roof.
- Debris under your Panels is also a hazard and must be cleaned out.
- Any Tree Branches that grow over, shading the panels need to be trimmed back.
All of these are done through my Cleaning Programs. - And I inspect your Roof and let you know if there are any problems!
Q - Do you need any special tickets/licenses to clean my Solar Panels?
A - I have a "Working at Heights" Ticket, and am also a License Roofing Plumber.
If needed Extra Protecting will be used, such as an Approved Roofing Harness and Safety Lines.

What have I done this week? mmmmmmmm
Well, Guess I have proven that Rain does not wash your Panels a couple of times this week :)
Mount Tamborine, These were the worst case of Dirty Panels I have seen in 5 years!
I also have a couple of panels set up at home that i use so I can keep an eye on them, The one on the left is not Alpha Eco Solar Protected!
After a big night of Rain on Wednesday Night, the Bird Droppings were still left on the left Panel, but as you can see the Right (Alpha Eco Solar Protected Panel) is Clean :)
So for the last 5 years Solar Companies and Owners have been telling me that the "Rain" washes your Panels? I think some one should have informed the rain that it has to do this?
And if it did, then after me Cleaning Program why am i getting 20-28% better performance from owners systems?
I wish every one out there a great Christmas, and New year :)

Pensioner I talked to today in Runaway Bay, Gold Coast
Has his Solar Panels Cleaned about 4-5 Months ago for $180 (3Kw System), said they person took about 15 minutes? does this sound like the Job was done good? and the value is worth it?
$180 every 6months = $360 per year, if this was to give the results I am getting of 20%+
In this case the Client is on $0.50 per KW
The Average 3 Kw System will produce 12.6Kwh per day = 4599Kwh per Year!
20% increase = 919.8 Kwh per Year @ $0.50/Kw = $459.90 Extra per year! wouldn't this be great :)
But at a cost of $360? this is 78.28% of what you are predicted to gain?
This does not sound good to me, but let me know if i am wrong!
My Alpha Eco Solar Program, that Cleans and Protects the Panels for 3 years, and is getting 20-28% increase on Dirty Panels (not cleaning then Annually!)
works out for this same system to be $50 every 6 months ($300 total for the 3 year Program!)
so with a 20% increase = $459.90 per year @ $100 per year = 21.74% of what your are predicted to gain ( I am getting 28% for some customers!)
Which way would you go? - Should I be putting my Prices up to be able to match the others?
I have taken the last 2 years to find a more cost effective Cleaning Program for those with Solar Panels, and It confuses me at times why people are paying so much to maintain their Solar Systems/Panels.
Let me know!!

Hello Gold Coast :)
What a week of some nice rain! well didn't help me with my Solar Cleaning, but was nice to get any way.
I do hope those that were effected by the storms are doing OK, getting close to Christmas, would not be a great thing to be dealing with, but i do hope the Insurance Companies look after you all (As they should!)
To all the Farming Families out west, I do hope this is a great Christmas Present, and will help you into the next year to get some Crops/Live Stock underway for a good year :)
As for myself, the rain this week means I now have a big weekend of sunshine and catch up Solar Cleaning to be done :) Bring on two days of sunshine!
I have been offering a "Summers Coming" Special Alpha Eco Solar Clean & Application, and will continue this Offer into Summer, for the next two months at least. As we all know that we get the best out of our Systems during summer. So this is your chance to make some good returns on your Solar Investment, even on Rainy Days the Alpha Eco Solar Coated Panels perform up to 30% better than Un-Coated Panels! Money in the Bank!!!!
My customers (mainly the Older wiser Ones) keep telling me that I am too cheap, that if my Prices are 8-12% of their expected improved performance and they are getting 20-28% improvement then they are making/saving more than i am getting! This is correct! The whole Goal of my Solar Cleaning is to help those with Solar Panels to Reap the Maximum Benefits of their Systems! Why would you have put Solar on if this was not the case?
Well have a great weekend in the sun shine Gold Coasters! I know I will :)
