GILROY, CA

Solar panel cleaning in Gilroy.

Farm dust and hot South County summers, washed off.

Why Gilroy panels get dirty

Gilroy, the Garlic Capital of the World, sits at the southern end of the Santa Clara Valley, where US 101 meets Highway 152. Garlic and other crops, orchards, vineyards and farm stands surround the city, and fieldwork through the dry months puts a lot of dust in the air.

Like the rest of the region, Gilroy gets little rain from late spring through fall. Truck traffic on 101 and 152 adds a fine film that dust sticks to, and in fire season smoke from the surrounding hills can leave ash on the glass.

Homes, ranches and ground mounts

Gilroy has homes in town plus many rural properties toward the hills and along Highway 152 with larger rooftop or ground-mount arrays. Ground mounts beside garlic fields and orchards get dusty fastest. Homes near the freeway pick up more traffic film. We clean every type and will tell you honestly if a spot is hard to reach.

When to book in Gilroy

Many owners clean in late spring before the summer heat and again in fall once the fields quiet down. If you're right next to farmland, a visit just after the busiest harvest weeks lasts longer.
