How long is the drive from San Ramon to Portola Valley?

Around 50 to 60 minutes via 680 south and then 92 or 280. We route Portola Valley with Hillsborough on our Peninsula day, and once you have a booked window we confirm the arrival time in writing.

Does the sealed-system warranty apply out here too?

Yes, it's the same everywhere we work. Sealed system repairs carry a one-year warranty (two years on a full rebuild), inverter boards get one year, and everything else gets 90 days. All of it falls under our EPA Universal certification.

Given how often we lose power here, is it worth fixing an old backup fridge instead of replacing it?

Often yes. A backup unit's job is just to hold temperature reliably through the outages you already plan around, and a thermistor, fan motor, or small refrigerant leak is a lot cheaper to fix than a new unit is to buy and haul in. If the compressor itself is going, I'll say so and let you decide from there.

Haier in Portola Valley

Haier in Portola Valley kitchens.

Portola Valley properties on wooded acreage often have a second or third refrigerator scattered across the house, a ranch outbuilding toward Skyline, or a garage, and Haier tends to be the brand doing that quiet backup duty rather than the main kitchen fridge. Nobody thinks about these units until the power's been out for a while and everyone's checking what survived.

We service Portola Valley from San Ramon via 680 south and 92 or 280. Haier sits under the GE Appliances umbrella, so its parts ship through GE's own distribution channel and even aging units are still worth repairing. The diagnostic is $99, credited toward the repair, with a written quote first. Sealed system work carries a one-year warranty (two years on a full rebuild) and is done under our EPA Section 608 Universal certification, EPA #1279674151528.

Water and ice systems

The water inlet valve, a common fridge leak.

Every fridge with a dispenser or ice maker has a water inlet valve. The fittings can leak under the cabinet, or the solenoid fails and the dispenser and ice maker stop getting water.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Drifted temperature sensors. A unit that freezes items one week and runs warm the next usually has a thermistor drifting out of range, not a failed control board. I test sensor resistance against spec and replace only the part that's actually reading wrong.
Failing evaporator fan motors. A rattling or chirping evaporator fan is often the first sign, and in a ranch outbuilding that only gets checked occasionally, that noise can run for weeks before the cooling loss gets noticed too. We provide a written repair estimate after the on-site diagnosis and before any work starts.
Sealed system leaks on older backup units. A unit that runs constantly and still won't hold temperature in either compartment has usually lost refrigerant. We handle sealed system repair ourselves: find the leak, repair, evacuate, recharge. Given how often this community plans around power shutoffs, a backup unit that actually holds cold matters more than most, and I'll tell you plainly if a unit isn't worth fixing.
