Remodeled kitchens in these Victorian and Edwardian houses often set a built-in coffee system in a tall cabinet beside the ovens, and on the city's soft water its descale reminder can often be stretched once the hardness is set correctly. ## What Pacific Heights does to a coffee machine. Local reservoir water bound for San Francisco is filtered first, at the Sunol Valley plant for Alameda County supply and the Harry Tracy plant for San Mateo County supply, with taste and odor removal along the way. Lower Pacific Heights, the blocks south of California Street, was long counted as part of the Western Addition before real estate agents popularized the newer name in the early 1990s. Its taps carry SFPUC water whose hardness averaged 62 ppm as calcium carbonate in 2025, with readings from 8.1 to 112 ppm. NOAA's 1991–2020 normals for downtown San Francisco give an average daily high of just 64.1 degrees F and only about three days a year reaching 90.
