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 2003 addition / alteration 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 & coolingLikely dueA newer 2024 permit for the same system is recorded as “Issued” — The work was permitted, but final completion is not confirmed. The permit description states “Repipe natural gas supply using two service feeds first service feed is for roof top furnace and kitchen stove. Second supply is to rear of home for water heater and clothes dryer. Black iron pipe running up exterior wall into attic space for first service feed. S econd supply is partial polyethylene in ground then metalic riser with black iron to water heater and clothes dryer.”. Last permitted 2004 (22 years ago). City inspection record: MECHANICAL - FINAL approved 2004-03-30. Contractor of record: TUCSON AIR *C,. The assessor records cooling as Refrigeration and heating as Forced Air. 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. Equipment from before about 2010 generally runs R-22, which has not been produced since 2020 — repairs mean reclaimed refrigerant at a price that often exceeds replacing the unit.

• Water heaterPermitted — completion not confirmedA 2024 permit specifies this work (the permit description states “Repipe natural gas supply using two service feeds first service feed is for roof top furnace and kitchen stove. Second supply is to rear of home for water heater and clothes dryer. Black iron pipe running up exterior wall into attic space for first service feed. S econd supply is partial polyethylene in ground then metalic riser with black iron to water heater and clothes dryer.”), but the available record does not show a final inspection. The work was permitted, but final completion is not confirmed. Official status: Issued. TC-RES-0424-01973 — Repipe natural gas supply using two service feeds first service feed is for roof top furnace and kitchen stove. Second supply is to rear of home for water heater and clothes dryer. Black iron pipe running up exterior wall into attic space for first service feed. S econd supply is partial polyethylene in ground then metalic riser with black iron to water heater and clothes dryer.
• RoofNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. The assessor records the roof as Prepared Roll.
• Plumbing work on recordNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Unremarkable — plenty of buildings never need a permitted plumbing repair.

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 — high priority

  Knob-and-tube wiring may still be present in original, un-remodeled areas. It has no ground and is not rated for modern loads or insulation contact. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Era-based check — high priority

  Original services this age were 30–60 A fuse panels. Nearly every one still in place is undersized for a modern household. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Era-based check — high priority

  Branch circuits from this era are typically ungrounded two-wire — the reason you see two-prong outlets or ungrounded three-prong replacements. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Worth confirming

  There is an electrical reconnect permit from 2011. 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.

Recorded sales (3)

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.

Permit history (15)

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.

Code enforcement (8)

Code cases and housing-code violations recorded against this parcel, by category. Closed cases stay on the record, and most of these are closed — check the status column. We show the category and the official record number rather than the complaint text, which often names people who have nothing to do with the property.

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?
