  Thomson installed a new mini-split heat pump for us in October 2023. To be included in the purchase was a promotional $500 gift card to Loblaws, as described by our salesman *****************************. The work was complete and we were very happy with the service. The invoice was payed in full on 11/22/2023.It is now 2/10/2024 and we still have not received the gift card. We have put in numerous requests for an update but all the customer service representatives can do is put in a request to the department that issues the gift cards. In early January, a representative assured me that the card would be issued by the end of January. Due to the lack of communication, we have no idea when we will receive the gift card.All we are seeking as a resolution is the $500 gift card that was to be included with the purchase. Thank you

  A rep from Thomson contacted us on Feb 13 to say he was going to process the gift card. We called back a couple weeks later and he said he would drop it off in person the week of Mar 4-8. We have not heard from Thomson since.

  We paid for an air conditioning unit to be installed and the heat pump was installed on April 28, 2023. The air conditioning technician came out to perform the installation and installed the wrong wires we later found out. Our ****** and ** ***** bills astronomically shot up as a result of the May installation. We expected a bit, even a lot, given the hot 2023 summer, but the usage was so high that we called Thomson back out because the expenses were adding up far beyond a reasonable air conditioning amount. Not only did they not respond to our calls, but we had to sign up for their monthly billed maintenance service to just get someone out there to check their original installation. Turns out, the technician had to reverse the wires on August 2, 2023, so the installation was faulty from the get go. After that visit the costs did decline for the month of August to a much more reasonable amount. The estimated additional expense is a collective total of $2,021 (** ***** $798 and ****** BC Natural Gas $1,223) for which we are seeking reimbursement in addition to the monthly billed maintenance service from August to current, at approximately $16 per month for a total of $96. The months of April 2023 and August 2023 are good "controls" to examine as those are the months prior to the heat pump installation as well as after the technical issue was adjusted, both during the warmer season when an air conditioner unit would have been in use. To rectify the expenses incurred that were not our fault, we politely asked them on November 28, 2023 and have waited for months making numerous prompts both by phone calls and emails, with varying degrees of responsiveness from them at different levels but they have stopped responding, as we last heard from them two weeks ago.

  Our heat pump that Thomson Industries installed (Nov 3, 2021) is ineligible for the Canada Greener Homes Grant (CGHG) program. We lost $4600 in rebates. We had responded to Thomson’s extensive advertising promoting rebates that were available for the installation of heat pumps. We followed their instructions on what we needed to do to qualify for the rebate programs. We expected that the heat pump would qualify for the rebate programs so were unpleasantly surprised when the post retrofit energy audit (Dec 21, 2021) revealed that Thomson had installed a heat pump that is ineligible for the CGHG rebates. Thomson refused to exchange the heat pump for one of comparable size (2.5-ton) but did offer to exchange the unit for a smaller size (2.0-ton) that would qualify for the program. We continued to try to resolve the issue directly with Thomson during 2022 but it was difficult as they screen and don’t return phone calls and ignored many of our emails. We have requested that Thomson compensate us for the lost rebates but they have not responded.

  The customer was originally quoted a smaller size unit that was eligible for a federal rebate. They wanted to run supply air runs to the top floor of their home. This is when the different size was quoted. There has been a number of emails between the customer and us, explaining the situation. We had offered to install the smaller capacity heat pump in order to make sure the customer received the rebate. They refused. That being said, we are working on a plan. We will reach out to the customer directly in the near future.

  Complaint: ********
  
  I am rejecting this response because:

  
  Thomson initially sized our heat pump at 2.0 ton as it was to only service the main floor as our second floor was heated by electric base boards. When we heard from other homeowners in our complex that we may not be eligible for the Canada Greener Homes Grant (CGHG) unless the unit served both floors, we contacted the Thomson Sales Advisor. He confirmed that there was some uncertainty about this requirement and if we wanted to ensure we qualified for the CGHG they could install ducts to the second floor.  Some of his other customers had chosen to do this. He thought that they would have to increase the size of the heat pump to 2.5 ton but would need to confirm this with his General Manager. He confirmed that the increase in size was required, and we were charged an addition $200 for the increase and $1400 for the addition of the ducts to the second floor.  We followed Thomson’s instructions on how to apply for the CGHG program including our spending an additional $945 for the required energy audits. At that time the Finance Manager confirmed, “It looks like you are right on track for the rebates!”.  We refused their offer to install a smaller sized unit as they had already determined that we required a larger unit to serve both floors.  Thomson refused to install a larger unit that would qualify for the CGHG.  
  
  There was no attempt by Thomson to explain why the ineligible heat pump was installed other than the General Managers comment, “I am not sure how we got here”.  Some other owners in our strata that had heat pumps installed by Thomson have the same issue. The details of some of their interactions with Thomson may be a bit different from ours but the outcome is the same; the heat pump installed does not qualify for the CGHG rebates. Some of the ineligible heat pumps were installed months after I raised the issue of ineligible heat pumps with Thomson. As a group, we attempted to resolve this issue with Thomson, but they ignored our requests to meet.  We haven’t heard from Thomson since September 20, 2022.
  
  It is disappointing how Thomson have handled this issue considering their high BBB rating.  What changed? I note that there are other complains and a review to BBB regarding Thomson installing ineligible heat pumps. Our neighbour was recently advised that the 2.0 ton heat pump Thomson installed does not qualify for the CGHG program.  Something is just not right about this whole thing!  
  
  This issue has been ongoing for nearly a year and a half. Thomson “working on a plan” is positive but they’ve had a lot of time to deal with the issue. If we receive their “plan” by Wednesday May 17, 2023, we will consider it.  Otherwise, we will proceed with a ***** ****** ***** **** *** ***** ********** ******** for compensation of the lost rebates.  

  
  Sincerely,
  
  ***** *****

  Thomson made us an offer of $4000.00, which is less then the amount we requested, conditional on our signing a release form. We requested that they send us a copy of the release form so we could consider their  entire settlement proposal.  We're still waiting for them to send us  the copy of the release form.

  Business response

  The customer was presented an offer for $4000.00.  This offer was rejected by the complainant and the matter was transferred to the ***** *******.  Until the ******** rules on the matter, the previous offer has been withdrawn and no settlement documents will be sent out.  Thomson will abide by the rulings made by the ******** and no further settlement offers will be presented unless and until the ******** case is cancelled or settled.

  Complaint: ********
  
  I am rejecting this response because:

  Some incorrect statements by Thomson.! 
  We didn’t “reject” their offer, which was: 
  “Thomson Industries will agree pay you the $4000 directly. Crystal will send you a release form that will require your signature. This form will also include a line stating that you will remove your ***** ********** ******** Notice. After this form is returned we will issue a cheque immediately. “
  We asked that they send us a copy of the release form so we could consider their entire settlement proposal.  A reasonable request!
  Regarding our raising the claim with the ***, we raised the claim before Thomson made the offer as they were not responding to the BBB complaint. They only responded to the BBB complaint after they received notification of the *** claim.
  Interestingly, we’re finding out about more and more ineligible installations by Thomson. Homeowners incurred a significant cost for the audits (ours was $945) to qualify for the CGHG program. Therefore, anyone applying to the program would have had a high expectation that the heat pump installed would qualify for the rebates. We are aware of fourteen installations by Thomson Industries that don’t qualify and there are probably many more. Many of the owners are seniors with limited computer expertise so have not pursued the issue beyond trying to get Thomson to live up to their original commitments.  Some are just tired of trying to get a response from Thomson so have given up. Others have discussed raising a FOI request of the NRC to determine the number of ineligible heat pumps installed by Thomson.
  We are also tired and feed up with trying to deal with Thomson on this issue, but feel we’ve been wronged and unfairly treated by Thomson so will continue with a Small Claims claim with the ***** ********** ******** for compensation of the lost rebates.  

  Thanks to the  BBB for your efforts to try to resolve this dispute!
  
  Sincerely,

  I am engaging the BBB due to Thomson Industries repeated non-response to questions in my emails dated Oct 25, Nov 21, 2022 and Jan 13, and Feb 28, 2023. I have been trying to get answers to specific questions regarding my heat pump and the ****** ******* ***** rebate. The issue is that, despite assurances prior to installation, the heat pump Thomson Industries installed in my home was not on the ****** ******* ***** list of eligible heat pumps. As a result, the questions I would like answered are the following: 1. What specific information did Thomson Industries have at the time of sale that the sales representative felt it proper to inform me that I could receive the ****** ******* ***** rebate after completing a home energy inspection?2. Thomson industries web based advertising in the summer of 2021 (I have screen shot) appears to show my ****** heat pump along with text indicating the availability of a ****** ******* ***** rebate. What specific information did your company have at the time to support that advertising?3. Of all the ****** heat pumps units sold by Thomson Industries in the summer of 2021, how many are in fact on the ******* ***** eligibility list? Are any of Thomson Industries residential ****** heat pumps on the ****** ******* ***** eligibility list? 4. Is Thomson Industries currently doing anything to compensate for the problems and home energy inspection fees associated with applications for the ******* ***** rebates? My main complaint is that I underwent an intrusive and expensive ($800) home inspection required for the ****** ******* ***** application due to information provided by the sales representative. However, at that time Thomson Industries was aware that my ****** heat pump was not on the eligibility list and, to this day, remains ineligible. I believe that Thomson Industries should take some responsibility for providing me with misinformation and at a minimum reimburse the home inspection fee.

  

  Business response

  14/03/2023

  I have looked over the estimate dated June 8, 2021 and can see no mention of the ******* ***** Grant.  I see the Clean ** rebate noted and I checked up on that and see that it has been paid out, including an amount for energy inspection fees. I have gone through all the emails that I can find but I can't find any promising you the ******* ***** rebate but if you have any, please forward them to us so we have all the information at hand.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  I find this response unsatisfactory. It is very clear to me and other heat pump customers I have corresponded with, that your sales representatives were providing verbal information regarding a ******* ***** rebate and how to engage in the required home energy inspection process by specifically recommending a home energy consultant. In addition, your website appeared to show my heat pump unit associated with a ******* ***** rebate. I spoke to staff at your company multiple times and was assured that my heat pump would be on the next ******* ***** updated list of qualifying units. However, this has never materialized.
  
  The questions I posed would clarify your companies knowledge as to applicable rebates at the time of sale, however, you are refusing to answer them. I will just end by saying your disingenuousness on this topic is very disappointing.

  In November 2021, Thomson Industries replaced my oil furnace with a ****** gas furnace. Included in the charges was providing and installing a gas regulator. As required by warranty, a Thomson technician inspected the furnace 1 year later on November 8,2022. He discovered that the inlet gas pressure to the furnace was over 10 X higher than allowed, that the high stage pressure was also high, and that the heat exchanger exhibited unusual scorching. I contacted a Bre-Ann at Thomson, who dismissed my concerns, and sent me a cost estimate of $341.90 to replace the regulator. I forwarded to her a photo of my invoice, suggesting I should not have to pay again for a regulator, and she said she was busy, would get to it later. I have repeatedly asked to speak with a supervisor, but each time was referred to Bre-Ann. I believe the high inlet gas pressure may be dangerous, and I feel the company is being very unprofessional. There does not appear to be any means of contacting the owner, Todd Thomson, or a supervisor, so I am dealing with BBB.

  I signed a contract with Thomson Industries Ltd (Thomson) on June 21, 2022 for purchase and installation of ****** heat pump and hair handler. The contract has been breached by Thomson on the following issues: 1. The contract states installation date to be on October 19th and 20th. Thomson postponed the actual installation start date to October 26th. 2. The contracted and verbal promise is for installation to be completed in 2 days, actually installation took 3 days (October 26th to 28th). My family had to bear the hardship of being in the cold with no heating system in the house for an extra day. The delay could have been avoided if an electrician was on site on day 1 rather than mid-day of day 2. Thomson provided unprofessional services in delivering the contract obligation, examples: 1. The air handler condensation drainage pipe was connected to a wrong drainage outlet hole, the problem was fixed by another Thomson agent on November 2 by reconnecting to the lower drainage outlet hole. Damage is unknown. 2. Heat strip in the air handler was not properly connected, it did not function, and it caused the fan to be working on high speed constantly (explanation provided by a Thomson agent on Nov 2). My family had to put up with the slow heating and loud fan noise for that week. The problem was fixed on November 2nd, 6 days after the installation. 3. When the installation was completed on October 28, the last Thomson employee just wrapped up and left. I asked him twice to walk around the equipment for some questions that I had, he refused both times and said “I have a dog in the car, I have to go”. I still don’t know if the heat pump and air handler models match the models stated in the contract. Currently there seems to be outstanding problems with the heat pump, the air handler and the setting of the thermostat, yet I can’t get anyone from Thomson to come and conduct an onsite diagnosis until December 2 which is almost 4 weeks away.

  08/11/2022

  Good morning. We did have some issues with the electrical with this installation. Sometimes installs don't go exactly as planned. We couldn't get the heat running on the second day because of the electrical not being completed. I pulled a technician off a site in Delta late in the afternoon on Oct 28 and sent him to ******'s place to commission the system so he would have heat for the weekend. i just wanted to respond to ******'s points. There is no damage done to the system by having the drain connected to the upper outlet. There is no water in the coil drain pan when the system is in heating mode. The heat strips were installed but the dip switch on the air handler wasn't set up properly. But ****** still had heat. Heat pump/air handler systems always run on high fan speed. I received a message Friday regarding ****** and the heat strips. I left a message for the electricians to call me. I will reach out to ****** and schedule to have a technician come out to see what is happening. I will have someone from the install department to reach out and book an appointment.

  I had a combi-boiler installed on March 19, 2021. In September 2021 water leaked from the penetrations through the B-vent cap where the intake and exhaust vents exit. Technicians were sent twice to repair the leaks, but the repairs failed. I was informed a permanent repair would be done when the weather got better. As a makeshift repair the technician taped a bag around the penetrations. An additional problem occurred with the condensate drain pipe from the boiler freezing during cold weather and causing a mini-flood in my crawlspace. Since March despite repeated phone calls and emails no one has come to perform permanent repairs for either issue. I was finally booked for an appointment on August 11 which I took a day off work to accommodate. No one showed up. When I called asking about it, an wholly unprepared technician was sent. He said he would report the problem to the office, but I have heard nothing since. I still have the firm's ladder on my property as it was left there earlier in the year with the intention of being used during the permanent repair. I would like proper permanent repairs for both issues with the boiler system.

  Purchased a A/C unit from Thomson a few years back. It never worked properly since installation. In late summer 2021 their technician advised that problem was that the refrigerant leaked out. This is not "normal usage or wear & tear". In any event, in Aug 2021 I paid for new refrigerant however their tech never tested the system afterwards. When I went to used the A/C unit in May 2022 it did not work Thomson tech came & said refrigerant had leaked out due to defective pipe installed by Thomson installers. Thomson said they would fix it but set appointments - then cancel them. Finally 3 service people in 2 large trucks attended to "fix" it but after a couple hours advise me that they can't complete the job as they forgot to bring a tool they need. Another appointment is set but Thomson canceled. Left messages for the owner to contact me but he didn't.

  Daikin mini-split cont’d— When I got back to site, checked pressures and they seemed to hold. I released the nitrogen and threw the system on the vacuum. Going to return later this afternoon to finish off the job, going to other calls. Came back and the microns were down to 210. I charged the system with 2.5lbs (factory charge 2.4lbs), and ran the system for 15mins before checking data. While I was tidying up the insulation indoor, I felt the air coming out of the head wasn’t that cold. Measured with my thermometer and only saw it was 65°F, just a tad below room temperature. Things seem to be running odd. -cooling data- Suction 140psi Suction line 68°F SST 49°F Supply air 55°F I was messing with the controller, and saw that the customer had it set to 68°F with an indoor temp of 71°F, maybe the setpoint was too close to the room temp. But when I lowered the setpoint down to 64°F, after letting things run for a bit, my supply temp is already looking a lot better. The liquid line is starting to sweat. Even the suction line temp is starting to drop too, bringing the superheat within target range. I think the setpoint played a part in things. Things seem to be running normally now. Told the customer to monitor over the next few days.

Several times we have had to wait weeks for a service call and not have them show up or call when scheduled. One of several attempts to fix it even caused damage to our walls, which then needed to be repaired. We still have no idea whether this will ever be resolved. Because of extensive damage to our house if we were to have these removed, even if we could find another company who could install a working system, it would be too late to have air conditioning for this summer heat. We are most unhappy and frustrated *** *** **** ** **** ***** ***********
