• Electrical service & panelNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Worth knowing: a 2012 solar pv 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 2008 permit specifies this work (the permit description states “Replacement of 3ton split a/c gas (McKaskle)”), but the available record does not show a final inspection. The permit expired without a confirmed final status. Official status: Expired. Contractor of record: AMERICAN HOME MAINTENANCE INC *C. The assessor records cooling as Refrigeration and heating as Forced Air. T08ME00234 — Replacement of 3ton split a/c gas (McKaskle)
• 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

  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

  Solar equipment was permitted here in 2012 — the permit category covers PV, solar water heating and pool heating alike. If it was PV, there is an existing interconnection and the busbar already carries backfeed, which constrains what else can be added under the 120% rule; a thermal system carries no such constraint. Worth confirming which it is.

Recorded sales (1)

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: 2023-12-29 (TR-ROW-1223-01487) — KE&G will be preforming milling and paving operations in the Barrio Nopal and Elvira neighborhoods including concrete sidewalk and ADA ramps..

Permit history (9)

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 (3)

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.

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?

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.
