Is it time to upgrade?

  • Electrical service & panelPermitted — completion not confirmedA 2022 permit specifies this work (the permit description states “Service Panel Upgrade 200A to 200A”), but the available record does not show a final inspection. The work was permitted, but final completion is not confirmed. Official status: Issued. City inspection record: COT - RSEL - Electrical Final approved 2022-12-16. T22CM08036 — Service Panel Upgrade 200A to 200A
  • Heating & coolingLikely dueLast permitted 2004 (22 years ago). City inspection record: MECHANICAL - FINAL approved 2004-06-30. Contractor of record: PERFECT TEMPERATURE INC. 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. 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 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 Built Up.
  • 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

    This is the aluminum branch-circuit window (roughly 1965–1973). Solid aluminum on 15/20 A circuits is a recognized fire hazard at the terminations and needs approved repair — COPALUM or AlumiConn, not a wire nut. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

  • Era-based check — high priority

    Federal Pacific (Stab-Lok) and Zinsco/Sylvania panels were sold through this period. Stab-Lok breakers have a documented history of failing to trip internally; Zinsco breakers can weld to the bus so the handle moves without breaking the circuit. In both cases a replacement breaker does not resolve it — the panel itself is what gets replaced. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

  • Era-based check

    100 A was typical. Adding an EV charger, heat pump, or casita usually forces a service upgrade first. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

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 (4)

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 12913101B — 7 permits on file from 2004 to 2022 (2 residential building - one or two family, 2 combo, 1 electrical reconnect, 1 row) and 4 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.
