# Appliance maintenance in Presidio Heights.

Most homes in Presidio Heights were built in the early 1900s, many in the Edwardian style, and the neighborhood's name was already in use before the 1906 earthquake.

## What Presidio Heights does to a home appliance.

The neighborhood sits between the Presidio to the north and Laurel Heights to the south, and it is often grouped with neighboring Pacific Heights in real-estate listings as a matched pair of affluent districts.

Because so much of the housing here predates 1920, plumbing and electrical systems in many homes have already been through at least one full modernization cycle.

PG&E serves the neighborhood's power, and its wildfire-season shutoff program is the same one that can affect the rest of San Francisco.

### Older housing stock

Older houses were not built around modern appliances, and a dryer or a hood there may exhaust through an opening cut decades ago in a thick wall, so upkeep traces that path to the outside and cleans it from end to end.

### Built-in and paneled suites

Built-in and panel-ready appliances hide their grilles, filters and seals behind cabinetry, and a maintenance visit reaches them through the kick plate or the maker's service access without scratching custom panels or sliding the unit out of its niche.

### Apartments and small homes

Small homes tend to lean on a single appliance of each kind for everything, one oven, one dishwasher, one washer, and with no spare to fall back on, cleaning filters and checking seals on a schedule matters more than in a bigger house.
