• Electrical service & panelNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Worth knowing: a 2024 solar pv permit is on file (and 2 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 & coolingNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Worth knowing: a 2024 solar pv permit is on file (and 2 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. 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 Tile.
• 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-1023-08693 — 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

  AFCI protection did not enter the code until the 1999 NEC (bedroom circuits, effective 2002) and was not expanded to most living areas until 2008 — so houses from the earlier part of this range typically have none at all. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

• Worth confirming

  Solar was permitted here in 2024. That means there is an existing interconnection, and the main breaker and busbar rating already carry a PV backfeed — so anything else you add (an EV charger, a heat pump) has to be checked against what is left under the 120% rule, not against the service size alone.

• Era-based check

  200 A is typical and is usually adequate — worth confirming the panel has physical space before planning new loads. The permit record does not confirm this; an on-site inspection is required.

Most recent permit on record for this parcel: 2024-11-13 (TC-SOL-1124-00741) — There is an existing permit (TC-SOL-0924-00495) for solar at this address. The property owner needs to contact building_official@tucsonaz.gov to have the permit withdrawn. The property owner will need to provide a letter of documentation in the email stating that they are the property owner and show proof that they are indeed the property owner to be added to the existing permit if they are not currently attached to the existing permit. Once they have been added to the existing permit they may process the withdrawal of the existing permit. Please note: no withdrawal will be processed if fees are due. If there are fees due, they must be paid prior to any withdrawal of the permit. Once the withdrawal of the existing permit has been processed, the hold will be removed from the SolarApp permit and it will be processed in a timely manner. If you have any questions about this, please email building_offcial@tucsonaz.gov Installation of a 6.715kw dc system.

Permit history (8)

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?
