What San Mateo County does
to an ice machine.

Where ice machines sit in San Mateo County: gated communities, home bars with clear ice, ice for pool decks and patios.

All of San Francisco Bay Area

Gated communities

Estate generators pick up the load after an outage, but an ice machine restarting on backup power may stall mid-harvest or come back in its delay mode, so a bin sitting half full the morning after is checked for that before any part is blamed.

Home bars with clear ice

Kitchen designers often place the clear-ice machine far from any floor drain, which means a drain pump hidden in the cabinet, and the pump's check valve and vent line are the first stop when water collects under a spotless island.

Ice for pool decks and patios

An outdoor-rated ice machine under a patio bar runs in the full heat of the afternoon, and its air-cooled condenser pulls in dust and grass clippings all summer, so cleaning the condenser filter is often what brings its output back.

Atherton

Atherton estates may run a clear-ice undercounter machine at the bar and another in the pool house, and the staff who fill ice buckets for entertaining usually notice first when output drops or the cubes turn cloudy.

Hillsborough

Hillsborough's zoning requires a house of at least 2,500 square feet on a lot of at least half an acre, so the town has no apartments, condominiums or townhouses.

Woodside

Woodside's fire station weather post hits 90°F on roughly 55 days in a normal year and 100°F on about 11, according to NOAA's 1991–2020 normals.

Belmont

Belmont's largest hotel is the Hyatt House, an apartment hotel that mostly serves business travelers because Oracle's headquarters is close by.

Burlingame

Its location near the airport has drawn the headquarters of mid-sized companies such as Meri Meri and Proterra to Burlingame.

Foster City

Foster City is home to the headquarters of Gilead Sciences, Zoox and Replit, and Visa was once its largest employer.

Half Moon Bay

Half Moon Bay's summer afternoons average just 64.8°F, and the town sees 80°F on only about four days a year in NOAA's 1991–2020 normals.

Menlo Park

Menlo Park, bordered by the bay on the north and east, is home to Meta Platforms' headquarters and is where Google was founded.

Millbrae

Millbrae's early history includes the Sixteen Mile House, a restaurant and rest stop the Sánchez family built in 1872 near the Mills estate.

Portola Valley

Portola Valley is named for Gaspar de Portolá, who led the first European party to explore the San Francisco Peninsula in 1769.

Redwood City

Redwood City's weather station logs 80°F on around 79 days of a normal year and 90°F on around 18, per NOAA.

San Carlos

San Carlos turned industrial in 1944 when Dalmo Victor opened its first large electronics plant, and a site once used by Varian Associates now holds Devil's Canyon Brewing Company.

San Mateo

In 1908 part of a San Mateo estate and its mansion became The Peninsula Hotel, one of several grand houses built in the city in that era.
