Esteemed Wrenches, I have an interesting issue with one of my installations. This is the message from the customer:
"I use the barn roof for rainwater harvesting, too. The first rain after installation left my wire mesh strainer clogged with a fine powdery material. I assumed it was debris from installation. The next rain gave the same result. I assumed it was pollen as I have for each rain since. HOWEVER, the roof has two sides and it is only the south side, with the PV panels, that clogs!" The site is in an agricultural area and the barn has a metal roof. We completed the installation about 6 months ago and he is still having the issue. My first thought is that it is related to the doubling of surface area since pollen could accumulate on both the modules and the roof surface below. Any suggestions or thoughts would be great.
