    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Resolved
    This business (BNG) installed and serviced the two gas furnaces in my home for approx. 10 years. A couple of years ago, BNG informed me that my furnaces (plus A/C unit) would need to be replaced. They told me I could replace them with a heat pump and blower units. I gave BNG full access to my house and **** system so that they could identify what to install. They identified a ********** heat pump system with blowers, and based on their recommendation -- and guarantees that it would be able to provide effective heating/cooling to my home -- I agreed to have them install it. The system (installed) cost $33,175.69. This amount was paid within a month of installation. Installation occurred in 10/2022. Within a month, we had a cold snap and the system was not able to keep my house at 68 degrees. BNG sent over a technician and he made some suggestions about how we should run the system. We followed those suggestions and yet several more times during the 2022-23 heating season the system was unable to keep the house at 68 degree during cold weather. Although BNG never sent anyone over while the problem occurred (despite my requests), after the cold snaps ended BNG would send over technicians who fixed certain problems with the initial installation that I was told would address the problem. When these fixes did not succeed, BNG had someone from ********** look at the system (4/2023), and BNG then made further changes to the system in response to **********'s report (6/2023). When we had cold weather again in 1/2024, I once again called BNG because the system could not keep the house at 68 degrees. They refused to respond. BNG has failed to do what they promised to do -- install a working heating/cooling system at my house. And now they are refusing to do what is necessary to comply with the written, oral and implied warranties provided with the **** system. BNG has copies of all the relevant documents.

    I Had a Maintenance program in Place, they serviced my AC, a week later it stopped cooling. They told me i needed a New compressor, but it may be more cost effective to replace the unit. They Quoted me 13K. I called another company and they fixed it for $137.00 It works Perfectly. The Part that needed replacing was the Part the the Periodic Preventative Maintenance Tech Replaced for Ballard natural Gas!! It appeared I was Set up for Failure!! Buyer be Ware!!

    Mr. *******, I am quite surprised by this review. Having been our client for the past 6 years, I would hope you'd feel comfortable giving us a call and letting us know there was an issue rather than resorting first to a negative review. I have refunded the amount for your maintenance plan in good faith and will be sitting down with the technician to find out if there is some kind of training issue here. We value your business and are always willing to go the extra mile for our clients. I am so sorry that we let you down this time, but we hope you will be willing to give us the opportunity to make it right.
