• 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 & coolingLikely dueLast permitted 2007 (19 years ago). City inspection record: MECHANICAL - FINAL approved 2007-12-19. Contractor of record: RITE WAY VENTILATING CO , *C. 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. T07ME00762 — Replace 4 ton split system (pre-existing roof mounted condensing unit)
• Water heaterLikely dueLast permitted 2009 (17 years ago). T09PL00261 — Install gas water heater
• RoofNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system.
• Plumbing work on recordOn recordLast permitted 2012 (14 years ago). Plumbing permits cover everything from a full re-pipe to a few feet of sewer repair, so this is a record that work happened rather than a statement about the whole system. T12CM04829 — EXTERIOR WATER LINE:RES

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

  GFCI protection was not required at all kitchen counter receptacles until the 1996 code. Expect gaps in kitchens, garages, and exterior outlets. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Era-based check

  Panels and breakers from this era are near the end of their service life even where the original installation was sound. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

The most recent permitted work on this parcel was in 2012. That says the parcel was worked on under permit, not what the work covered — a roof, a pool or a changeout tells you nothing about the electrical service. Work done without a permit leaves no trace here at all.

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?

Utility and upgrade pathElectric service here is Tucson Electric Power (TEP). A service or panel upgrade needs a TEP meter release and has to meet TEP’s service requirements — meter height and location, clearances, and the point of attachment. See TEP new-service requirements and the TEP standards notes.

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.

What the flood note is not. The flood zone shown is FEMA’s National Flood Hazard Layer — the federal insurance map. Local floodplain mapping is not reproduced here; use the authority’s own map, linked above. Nothing here is a floodplain determination, an elevation certificate, or a substitute for one. A parcel can straddle a boundary, and a Letter of Map Amendment can remove a structure the map still covers. For a determination, ask the floodplain administrator for the jurisdiction named above; for a design that has to satisfy one, that is work we do.
