What San Marino does
to a microwave.

San Marino's housing is old: its median build year in the 2020–2024 American Community Survey is 1943, more than two decades ahead of the county's 1965.

NOAA's San Gabriel Fire Department station records about seven days of 100-degree heat in a normal year.

Fewer than one occupied home in five in the city, about 17 percent, heats mainly with electricity.

Older housing stock

Older houses run the kitchen on circuits laid out long before microwaves, and a unit that trips the breaker or dims the lights on start may be healthy on a circuit that is not; the circuit is measured first.

Trim kits and drawers

Trim kits give a built-in microwave the airflow it needs, and a custom panel that closes off the vent slots makes the unit stop mid-cycle on its thermal cutout, which the repair checks before any part is changed.

Family houses

Children press microwave buttons for fun and slam its door mid-cycle, so a unit that seems broken is first checked for a child lock or a demo mode before the board or the interlocks are tested.

cannot wait in San Marino.
