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 2023 addition / alteration permit is on file (and 1 more like it) — 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 & coolingPermitted — completion not confirmedA 1997 permit specifies this work (the permit description states “FURNACE:REPLACEMENT”), but the available record does not show a final inspection. The permit expired without a confirmed final status. Official status: Expired. Contractor of record: G T R HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONI. The assessor records cooling as Evaporative and heating as Forced Air. T97ME00434 — FURNACE:REPLACEMENT
  • Water heaterLikely dueLast permitted 2006 (20 years ago). T06PL00492 — Replace Water Heater 40 gal/gas
  • 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 recordOn recordLast permitted 2023 (3 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. TC-RES-1023-08683 — Installation of new Private water service line from the Meter to 10' outside of the house (house Connection) part of Rodeo addition phase 2 TW project. The water line will be a 1-inch pex, buried at 14 inches. 12awg tracer wire will be taped to the pex every ten ft. from the new meter to the tie-in point. The new 5/8 meter will have a 1-inch meter valve installed on the customer's side.

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.

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.

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?

How this report was built

This is a reading of public records for parcel 137040290 — 11 permits on file from 1997 to 2023 (4 row, 2 addition / alteration, 1 combo, 1 excav) — 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.
