The Roof Wizard found a new use for the SWS Cradle Skid today.... We were contracted to clean approx. 2000 solar panels. 1600 on three different carport mounted racks & 400 rooftop mounted panels. We used water feeed poles and DI filters to scrub the panels clean in only 5 hours time. The job would not have been completely so smooth if not for the homemade platform/scaffold we mounted on top of our SWS skid. Two guys were able to clean at the same time, one for the close half of the panels and one for the further half. I stayed in the truck and just moved it up a couple feet at a time when they signaled me. We did each carport in just under an hour per carport. Below are some pics of the days work.
one is a ionic grafter 32' and the other a gardiner 40'. I like the Gardiner poles better.
