Cleaning Solar Panels From the Ground

Question

My though is to use water fed brush and pole type where water flows through the pole. Or perhaps a smaller exterior tube to carry the water. Then attach the pole to a vertical pole perhaps one that collapses.

Thoughts on a workable system for a 12' roof?

Or wait for rain? :h

If its just a rinse you need this should do. I use one at home on the gutters each year.  Gutter Rinse tool

I like your idea.  That's essentially what I do (after I climb up and notice the dirt, dust, bird droppings, etc).  The longer it sits the harder it is to remove.  I occasionally use some kind of cleanser too.

I use the brush on a water pole routine.Finish with a squeegee on a pole made for washing home windows.Also have used a large wet towel and push it around with a pole.
