Bunn in Portola Valley
Bunn commercial service.
Portola Valley has almost no commercial inventory beyond its small town center, so the Bunn machines I service here sit inside homes off Alpine Road and Portola Road: granita dispensers in home theaters, Ultra units in catering-style kitchens, juice dispensers in breakfast pantries on the larger custom properties. These machines get loaded for a gathering and otherwise sit for weeks, and that idle stretch is its own kind of failure mode on a sealed refrigeration system.
This is a wildfire-aware community, and PG&E public safety power shutoffs happen often enough that I plan around them. A machine that sits through a multi-day outage on generator or battery backup, or one that comes back online after utility power returns, needs its freeze control checked before anyone assumes it is fine. The most useful call I make out here is often preventive, pressure-test the system, replace seals before they crack, and confirm the freeze control holds setpoint well before the machine actually needs to work.
ADRIUM Service Solutions is based in San Ramon under owner Andrew Kuznetsov, EPA Section 608 Universal certified, CSLB #1136642. Book the repair and the $75 diagnostic drops off the bill, quotes arrive in writing, repairs carry a one year warranty, and scheduling runs seven days a week around whatever event you have planned.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Seal failures on machines that sit idle between uses. The auger seal on a Bunn machine needs regular product contact to stay pliable, and a home theater unit run only occasionally dries that seal out between uses. The first sign is a leak the next time it runs before a gathering. I replace the full seal kit and walk you through a glycerin storage step that keeps new seals from drying out again.
- Freeze control faults after a public safety power shutoff. When a property switches to generator or battery power during a PSPS event, the transition can put a transient through the machine's control electronics that a steady utility feed never delivers. Symptoms are a lost setpoint, a dark display, or a unit that forgets which mode it was in. I verify the board against the sensors before quoting a fix, and I recommend a point-of-use surge protector on that circuit regardless of what caused the fault.
- Refrigerant micro-leaks discovered under load. A slow refrigerant leak on a low-use machine hides for weeks because nobody is tracking freeze-down time, and then the machine gets loaded for an event and will not pull product cold. I find the leak electronically, braze the repair, and weigh in the correct charge. If freeze-down is slower than the last time you used it, that is worth a call before the next gathering, not during it.

FAQ
Bunn in Portola Valley questions, answered.
-
How far is the drive from San Ramon to Portola Valley?
About 50 to 60 minutes down 680 and over on 92 or 280. I run Portola Valley on the same Peninsula day as Hillsborough, so a day's notice usually gets you a firm window confirmed in writing. -
We just had a multi-day power shutoff. Should we get the machine checked before using it again?
Yes, that is worth doing. A rough transition to generator or battery power and back can trip the freeze control or leave the board in a state it should not be in, and you will not know until you load it for an event and it fails. A quick check confirms it is holding setpoint before it matters. -
Can you check the machine ahead of a specific party so we are not guessing?
That is exactly the right call. A pre-event check runs a full freeze-down with a test product, verifies the dispense, and catches a seal or refrigerant problem while there is still time to fix it before guests show up.
