What Atherton does
to a wine cellar cooling unit.

Atherton allows only single-family homes on lots of at least one acre and has no commercial zoning at all, so the town has no shops or restaurants.

The American Community Survey puts 43 percent of Atherton houses at five bedrooms or more and about 76 percent at a minimum of four.

Given to the town in 1958, the Holbrook-Palmer Estate, once a working gentleman's farm, now serves as a 22-acre public park.

Residents objected to overhead electric lines for the high-speed rail route because they would require trees to be cut.

Gated communities

Estates in gated communities usually run a standby generator, and a cellar unit that went down after an outage often did not start again when the generator handed the load back to the grid, so the repair checks the restart delay and the controller.

Designed wine rooms

Designers often hide the cooling unit, ducting it from a mechanical room or setting it into the ceiling, and a repair on a hidden unit starts by finding an access panel that may have been painted or tiled over.

A room just for wine

A cellar added after the house was finished often took over a closet or storage room that was never insulated, and its unit fights heat through bare drywall, so the repair looks at whether the room was ever built as a cellar.
