Hello Allan,
I have not encountered this problem, but several years ago we did solar 
water heateing on a fast food joint in San Francisco. It did not perform 
well because the glass became covered in grease and soot. The system was 
abandoned in a few weeks and removed the following year.

>A client of ours has requested an answer to this question: Is there any known history of PV modules degrading from close proximity to any substances (NOx, water vapor, ozone, etc.) that are normal byproducts of combustion from a nearby boiler vent stack?
