Is it time to upgrade?

  • Electrical service & panelCurrentLast permitted 2004 (22 years ago). City inspection record: PERMIT FINALED approved 2004-05-18. Contractor of record: ARNOLD ELECTRIC CO. The permit describes an increase in capacity, which is the single best sign the electrical has actually been brought forward. T04EL01019 — UPGRADE:ELECTRIC 60AMP TO 200AMP
  • Heating & coolingNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Worth knowing: a 2025 adu / casita 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. The assessor records cooling as Evaporative 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.
  • Water heaterNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Water heaters are frequently swapped without a permit, so this line is especially weak evidence either way.
  • RoofNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. The assessor records the roof as Asphalt.
  • 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

    An ADU or casita was permitted in 2025, which means load has already been added to this property. Whether there is headroom left for anything more depends on how that was fed — a subpanel off the existing service, or its own.

  • Worth confirming

    There is an electrical reconnect permit from 2004. 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 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.

Code enforcement (2)

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.

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 126120360 — 4 permits on file from 1999 to 2025 (3 elect, 1 adu / casita) and 2 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 2026-08-17; 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.
