Inland heat, fire-risk backcountry-interface zones, and large family-home roof footprints drive larger arrays paired with battery storage. Quarterly cleaning is the working baseline for fire-zone and tree-cover properties.

Is it really a stain or just dirt?

Regular cleaning makes it cleaner but the etching remains. The test: clean the panel with DI water and look at it backlit. If there's still a haze or rainbow shimmer, that's etching.

Concentrated acid would. The pro uses a dilute, panel-safe formulation that works in the 2-5 minute contact range, then a full DI rinse to neutralize. Manufacturers test panels against this method during certification.
