Is it time to upgrade?

• Electrical service & panelNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. 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 & coolingNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. 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.
• 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

  60–100 A was standard. That is enough for a mid-century house, not for a modern kitchen, HVAC, and an EV. 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

  Grounded branch circuits did not become the norm until the early 1960s — much of the original wiring here is likely ungrounded. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Era-based check

  Cloth-jacketed NM cable is common in this era. The jacket embrittles with age and heat, particularly in Tucson attics. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Worth confirming

  The assessor records a pool on this parcel. Equipment bonding, the equipotential bonding grid and GFCI protection on the pump and light circuits are the usual findings on pool equipment — the pool-bonding rules in NEC Article 680 were expanded in the 2008 cycle, so a pool built before that is worth an on-site check.

Recorded sales (4)

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.

Most recent permit on record for this parcel: 2024-07-08 (TC-RES-0724-03975) — Add 24 inches if 2 inch square welded wire on top of existing 5 ft block wall at alley...see lower right of Google map photo, to prevent anyone from accessing pool and drowning. Also when we purchased home 3 months ago, there is a pre-existing horizontal wood slat topper between neighbor's backyard and ours, extending on alley side to center backyard where pool is fence off from remaining backyard..see lower left of Google map. This is just under 31 inches on top of our existing 5 ft block wall. There is a gap between slats and can easily be seen through. We would like to keep, as it looks nice..see photo and we have a large dog that can easily jump 5 feet over. We would like a retroactive permit, as I am uncertain if one was obtained by previous owner. Also homes on Malvern with shared alley have toppers well over 8 ft, see photos. There is no difference in ground elevation. Perhaps they were grandfathered in, but we respectfully request approval for the 24 inch topper bringing the back alley femce to 7 ft. We have been most distressed having lost all in the Paradise California Wildfire 5 years ago, spending 4 days moving here from Washington only to have the city refuse to turn on our water for four excruciating days. Please consider granting permits for the above. I previously applied but am technologically challenged at almost 60, having to do this all on my phone.

Permit history (3)

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?
