A Broken Horn array is a shallow piece of glass with nothing above it, collecting everything. It sits in Boise between Cole Road and Curtis north of Beacon Light in 83714, and it is one of the city's active build-outs, platted 2021–2022 on one plat. It runs about 151 acres, with real variety in elevation and glass package, and that scale is part of the quote.

A solar panel is a piece of glass mounted at a shallow angle with nothing above it, which makes it the best dust collector on the property. Here it catches decomposed granite off the foothills, plus the winter inversion that traps particulate at ground level for weeks at a time, and then — the part people do not expect — it catches irrigation overspray. Untreated water on a warm panel evaporates fast and leaves exactly the bonded mineral film it leaves on windows, except here it sits directly in the light path. The panels at the low edge of the array, where runoff concentrates, are usually worst. We see it most consistently on the homes along W Red Poll Dr.
Panels get the same pure-water method as glass, for a better reason: soap residue on a panel is a soiling magnet, so a soaped panel gets dirty faster than one never cleaned. Deionized water dissolves the mineral and dries clean. We never use abrasives or anything that could mar the anti-reflective coating, we clean from the ground with poles wherever the pitch allows, and we do not walk on panels — micro-cracking from foot traffic is invisible and permanent. We do not touch wiring or inverters. On Broken Horn's newer builds the warranty paperwork usually still matters, so we work in a way that will not give anyone a reason to void it.
Two things drive this in Boise: untreated irrigation water off the canal system, and decomposed granite off the foothills, plus the winter inversion that traps particulate at ground level for weeks at a time. Separately each is manageable. Together they bond, and that is the condition we are actually treating on a Broken Horn job. Broken Horn routes off Beacon Light, so getting here is not a special trip.
Bundling with window cleaning saves a trip charge and gets the sequence right. We will tell you honestly if you do not need the second service yet — a bundle you do not need is not a saving.
We clean the glass. We do not touch wiring, inverters or mounting hardware, we never walk on panels, and we will decline an array we cannot reach safely. Reflekt has been operating since April 2025, which is a shorter history than some of the companies you may be comparing us against. We would rather you knew that up front.

On a visibly soiled array, yes — meaningfully. On one cleaned two months ago, not really. We will look and tell you honestly if it does not need doing yet.

Quoted per array. The final number depends on the property, and there is no contract and no membership requirement. Booking it alongside another service on the same visit is the cheapest way to do it.
No abrasives, no soap, and nothing that touches the anti-reflective coating aggressively. Pure water and soft media only.
We avoid it, and we never walk on panels. Most arrays we reach from the ground with poles. If yours cannot be reached safely we will say so.
