Is it time to upgrade?

  • Electrical service & panelNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Worth knowing: a 2023 solar pv permit is on file — work like this is often folded into a larger permit without being named, so open that record and check its scope before concluding anything. That does not tell you the service is original — only that nothing has been permitted here recently. The build year is the better clue, and it is above.
  • Heating & coolingCurrentLast permitted this year (2026). City inspection record: COT - RSPL - Plumbing Final approved 2026-08-06. Cooling equipment works harder in Tucson than almost anywhere, so 12 to 15 years is a realistic service life rather than the 15 to 20 the industry quotes. TC-RES-0726-04235 — Replace main gas service line from meter to home. 35 feet from meter to home riser. Then 45 feet from riser to furthest fixture. replacing all pipe under manufactured home to feed 3 fixtures. Water heater, Furnace and Range. with a total of 165,000 BTUS.

A found permit means a lot. A missing one means less. We read the City of Tucson’s own permit file, not a recent extract of it — back to about 2006, and into the 1990s on properties with that much history. Microfiche before then was never fully digitised. Every record links to the city’s official file. A blank line does not say nothing was done: work gets done without permits all the time. The only way to know what is actually installed is to look at it.

What that usually means electrically

  • Worth confirming

    This reads as a manufactured or mobile home. The electrical questions are different from a stick-built house: the service and meter usually sit on a separate pedestal, and the feeder from that pedestal to the home is where undersizing and corrosion show up first.

  • Worth confirming

    Bonding and grounding are the common finding on older units — the frame must be bonded, and the neutral and ground have to stay separated downstream of the service disconnect at the pedestal.

  • Worth confirming

    Solar was permitted here in 2023. That means there is an existing interconnection, and the main breaker and busbar rating already carry a PV backfeed — so anything else you add (an EV charger, a heat pump) has to be checked against what is left under the 120% rule, not against the service size alone.

  • Worth confirming

    There is an electrical reconnect permit from 2020. The service was disconnected at some point and brought back — usually after a vacancy, a utility disconnect, or work that required the power off. Worth knowing what prompted it.

  • Routine

    Adding an EV charger, a mini-split, or a casita usually means looking at the pedestal service and feeder capacity rather than the panel inside the home.

Recorded sales are the sales the Pima County Assessor has on file from affidavits of property value — not every transfer, not listings, and not a valuation. Parties are never shown here. A sale with no permitted electrical work since is worth knowing before the next sale or a remodel.

How to read the status column: Final / Complete / C of O — city records show the permit was finalized. Issued — the work was permitted, but final completion is not confirmed. Applied / In review / Approved / Fees paid — proposed, not completion. Expired — the permit expired without a confirmed final status. Void / Withdrawn / Canceled — not evidence the work was installed. Any other status is shown exactly as the issuing office records it, without a completion reading.

Record numbers link to the City of Tucson’s official file. Highlighted rows are the ones that imply electrical work or an unpermitted-work finding.

This is an inference from public records — the year a structure was built, how it is classified, and what has been permitted. It is not an inspection, and nothing here confirms what is actually installed at this address. The only way to know is to look in the panel. See an error in this public-record report?

How this report was built

This is a reading of public records for parcel 107050490 — 5 permits on file from 2001 to 2026 (2 manufactured home, 1 solar pv, 1 electrical reconnect, 1 mech) — assembled from the Pima County parcel file, the City of Tucson’s Property Research Online file (permits back to about 2006, further on some parcels), and the City’s GIS permit and code-enforcement layers (2022 onward). Public records last checked 2026-08-17; the record is re-read at least weekly. Each permit and code case links to its official file. The verdicts are inferences from what was permitted and when, and from the era the building went up; they are not an inspection, and nothing here confirms what is installed. A permit that is present is strong evidence; a permit that is absent is weak evidence — plenty of work is never permitted, and older county records were only partly moved online.
