What Los Altos Hills does
to a freezer.

The town's guidance says PG&E sends registered customers an email 48 hours and again 24 hours before a planned shutoff.

Before switching power back on, PG&E crews inspect every affected line, and the utility expects restoration about 12 hours after the weather event ends.

Los Altos Hills formed an underground utility district around the El Monte Fire Station because El Monte, Moody and Elena roads serve as evacuation routes.

Gated communities

An estate behind a gate may run a freezer column in the kitchen, freezer drawers at the bar and a chest freezer in a service room, and the staff who check them before an event are usually the first to report one running warm.

Built-in columns and drawers

A built-in freezer column paired with a matching column is set into cabinetry cut to its exact size, and a repair there works from the front, through the top grille and the toe kick, rather than pulling the column out of its opening.

Family houses

In a busy household packages get stacked against the back wall of the upright, which blocks the fan's air path, so the top shelf warms while the bottom stays hard, a pattern that points to airflow before it points to a part.
