Wet weather overwhelmed Hillsborough's sewers often enough to cause more than 89 public sewer overflows between December 2004 and January 2009. ## What Hillsborough does to a washer. In late 2009 the Regional Water Quality Control Board issued the town a Cease and Desist Order requiring a plan to end those overflows. The town's investigation found many private sewer laterals cracked or punctured by tree roots, letting rainwater in during storms and raw sewage out in dry weather. Hillsborough runs its own water utility, with 16 pressure zones, 14 pump stations, 18 storage tanks and 107 miles of mains carrying water bought from San Francisco's regional system.

The upstairs washer sits above finished ceilings, which makes its drain pan and supply hoses worth checking on every visit. ### Designed laundry rooms A house whose kitchen came from a designer usually got a laundry from the same hand: washer framed by cabinets, perched on a matching drawer. That neat fit leaves little slack in the hoses and drain, and pulling the machine out for service takes patience. ### Pool and beach towels Outdoor living means armloads of wet, heavy towels in the warm months, and a washer loaded to the brim with them spins off balance and strains its suspension and bearings. Splitting those loads is the simplest way to extend the machine's life. ## A visit in Hillsborough. Four steps from the call to a working washer in Hillsborough, San Mateo County.
