Here's a a little bit about our going gridtied.      And you're right about washing the panels off.  Dust from our gravel road affects the output.....    http://solarhome.net/home-solar-power.html#gridtied_in_california

We just went grid intertie and within a day the solar panels were dusty.  We had a slight sprinkle which seems to make it worse.  How are you and anyone else reading this cleaning those panels.  I'm thinking about a water fed pole to reach them and DI water cart because we have hard water and it seems water spots will be counter productive.  Detergent should not be needed I wouldn't needed with DI water.
