  • Electrical service & panelNot in this windowNothing in the permit records we read for this parcel that names this system. Worth knowing: a 2023 electrical / mechanical permit is on file — 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 2023 electrical / mechanical permit is on file — 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 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. This parcel is in unincorporated Pima County, so we read the county’s own permit system — including its historical permits, which reach back into the 1990s where they exist. Every record links to the county’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 2023. 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.

  • Worth confirming

    There is an electrical reconnect permit from 2018. The service was disconnected at some point and brought back — usually after a vacancy, a utility disconnect, or work that required the power off. Worth knowing what prompted it.

  • 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.

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 issuing office’s official file — Pima County’s portal for county permits, the City of Tucson’s for city records. 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 20564600B — 14 permits on file from 2002 to 2023 (8 historical, 2 electrical / mechanical, 2 public records request, 1 floodplain use) — assembled from the Pima County parcel file, the City of Tucson GIS layers, and Pima County’s Accela permit portal (searched by parcel and by address, because the county’s parcel links break on older records). 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.

The interactive version of this report can also read the plan sheets behind a City of Tucson permit and write a contractor’s brief of the whole record — those buttons appear once the page finishes loading.
