Cleaning solar panels with a water fed pole

This video shows how I clean my solar panels and what equipment I use. It also covers why you need to clean your panels to prevent green algae growth which can lead to lichen growth.
The water fed pole WFP is brilliant for reaching solar panels, coupled with resin filtration of water to produce pure water with no TDS (Total Resolved Solids) gives a clean non spot finish with no hard water spots.
