Is it time to upgrade?

  • Electrical service & distributionPermitted — completion not confirmedA 2015 permit specifies this work (the permit description states “TI: AT&T SWITCHGEAR UPGRADE”), but the available record does not show a final inspection. The permit expired without a confirmed final status. Official status: Expired. City inspection record: ELECTRIC - FINAL approved 2017-09-06. Contractor of record: CALIENTE CONSTRUCTION INC. T15CM06456 — TI: AT&T SWITCHGEAR UPGRADE
  • Heating, cooling & mechanicalLikely dueLast permitted 2010 (16 years ago). City inspection record: BUILDING - FINAL approved 2011-03-23. Contractor of record: CALIENTE CONSTRUCTION INC ,. Packaged rooftop units work 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. T10CM02653 — UPGRADE HVAC SYSTEM FOR EXISTING TELCO EQUP RM ON THE 3RD FLOOR
  • Fire alarm & life safetyCurrentLast permitted 2020 (6 years ago). Panels and devices age out on their own schedule, and the code moves underneath them — a system that was compliant when installed is not automatically compliant now. T20FC00558 — TI - VESDA Fire Alarm addition to existing system
  • RoofNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Roof age matters electrically too: it sets what can be penetrated for new rooftop units, conduit, or solar.

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

  • Era-based check

    Gear in this age range is usually still supported but is due for infrared scanning and torque verification if that has not been done recently. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

  • Era-based check

    NFPA 70E expects arc-flash studies to be reviewed at least every five years, or after any change to the service. Buildings this age often have labeling that no longer matches the installed gear. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

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.

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?

The contractor’s read is a plain-English brief of the record above, written by AI — what it shows across electrical, mechanical and the building itself, what is missing for the era, and what to verify on site.

How this report was built

This is a reading of public records for parcel 11711076A — 45 permits on file from 2000 to 2025 (12 combo, 6 row, 6 build, 3 right-of-way (row) - utility) and 7 code enforcement cases — 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 2026-08-16; 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.

The interactive version of this report can also read the plan sheets behind a City of Tucson permit and write a contractor’s brief of the whole record — those buttons appear once the page finishes loading.
