The Premium Solar Mesh Kit is designed to prevent birds and rodents from nesting under solar arrays. The Solar Mesh helps to protect electrical wiring and solar panels from damage caused by chewing, nesting materials and debris. Solar Mesh is also great for use in bushfire prone areas, preventing the build up of leaf litter under solar arrays. The Solar Mesh is quickly secured with polycarbonate clips, protecting panels without damage or alteration so as to maintain the panel warranty.
The Solar Mesh is made from quality stainless steel wire welded into 12.5mm squares and coated with PVC, ensuring that Solar Mesh is
resistant to UV degradation and corrosion. Solar panel clips are made from tough UV stable polycarbonate and corner clips from quality stainless steel.

Solar panel protection using The Premium Solar Mesh Kit is a practical and efficient way to safeguard solar installations from a variety of external threats, such as birds, rodents, debris, and extreme weather conditions. Solar panels are a significant investment, and keeping them in optimal condition is crucial for maximizing energy production and the lifespan of the system. Using the Premium Solar Mesh as a protective barrier offers several advantages:
1. **Bird Deterrence:** Birds can be attracted to solar panels for various reasons, including seeking shade or nesting. Unfortunately, their presence can lead to damage to the panels, fouling of surfaces with droppings, and reduced energy output. The Premium Solar Mesh serves as a deterrent and keeps birds away, preventing damage and minimizing maintenance needs.
2. **Rodent Control:** Small animals like squirrels and rodents often find the space underneath solar panels appealing for nesting. They can chew through wires, insulation, and even the panel's backsheet, causing costly damage and reducing the system's efficiency. This robust mesh can create a barrier that prevents animals from accessing the underside of the solar panels.
3. **Debris Protection:** Falling leaves, branches, and other debris can accumulate on solar panels, creating shading and reducing their efficiency. The Premium Solar Mesh acts as a barrier that blocks debris from accumulating on the panel's surface, ensuring optimal energy production.
4. **Maintenance Minimization:** Solar panel mesh protection reduces the frequency and costs of cleaning and repairs. With reduced exposure to external elements and pests, solar panels can function efficiently for longer periods, requiring fewer cleaning and maintenance tasks.
5. **Aesthetic Considerations:** The Premium Solar Mesh blends with the appearance of the solar installation, ensuring that it doesn't detract from the overall aesthetics of the building or landscape. This is particularly important for residential installations and areas with strict aesthetic requirements.
6. **Environmentally Friendly:** Mesh is a relatively eco-friendly solution for solar panel protection. It doesn't involve the use of harmful chemicals or excessive energy consumption, making it a sustainable choice.
