A Cedars array is a shallow piece of glass with nothing above it, collecting everything. It sits in Caldwell off Karcher Rd in 83607, and it is new ground: recorded 2020–2026 across 5 phases, with homes still going up. It covers about 101 acres and about 343 lots, large enough that we route it as its own stop, 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 Canyon County farm dust off the dairy, seed-crop and row-crop ground that still surrounds the city on three sides, plus the harvest traffic that comes with it, 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. Across about 101 acres the pattern barely varies here.
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 Cedars'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.
Caldwell is one of the few cities in the valley that runs its own irrigation district — the Caldwell Municipal Irrigation District delivers untreated surface water to yards across town, and a lot of the older grid is still on gravity rather than pressure. What reaches the glass is canal water either way. On a Cedars property that shows up as a shorter useful interval than the same work would hold somewhere else in the valley, which is worth knowing before you decide how often to book. If you are on Nisene Ct or one of the streets off it, we are likely already working nearby.
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.
Most Cedars customers book this alongside window cleaning. Partly that is price, partly sequence — washing walls after cleaning glass puts dirty water back on clean panes, and hanging lights before clearing gutters means working around your own strands in January.

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.
