Hi Wrenches,<br><br>

We have a lot of border line temperatures here that will not quit melt

the snow off an array. We can lose production on a semi sunny, 28 degree

day. During such a day, I was looking at my frost free water faucet and

my array. Humm, I could easily hose the snow off.<br><br>

Is there a reason not to do that? Any ice or slush would not present a

problem. Is there a danger to the modules from doing that? <br><br>

Maybe this would even work on a sunny day when the temperatures were

colder? Could a module break? Anyone ever try this?<br><br>

Thanks,<br><br>

Drake <br><br>
