      There was never any transaction with this issue. A few months ago our furnace broke during one of the major snowstorms here in Southern Ontario. We do not have a dedicated HVAC company that we use and we were calling around to try to get someone to come fix the furnace ASAP. We had initially booked for an appointment with Enercare but it wasn’t for a few days. In the mean time we found another HVAC company to come service our furnace sooner. I called Enercare to cancel the appointment and that was that.

      A while later I received a bill from Enercare for $29.00. I called to dispute this on March 5th and they said they removed the charge and it may take a few billing cycles and not to worry. I thought the issue was resolved. Until May 7th I received a phone call from a collections agency claiming I owed Enercare $452.00 for a service visit that never happened. Upon calling them, they have been unable to resolve the issue and cancel the service visit charge, for the service visit that never happened.

      I continue to receive harassing phone calls and letters stating that I owe them $452.00 for services that were never rendered. They have begun threatening to send the balance to collections and I am concerned that it will impact my credit rating.

      To be perfectly clear, Enercare NEVER visited my house for a service visit, yet are threatening my credit with fraudulent charges and are completely unable or unwilling to resolve the issue by phone. I have spent at least 4 hours attempting to fix this myself, but clearly I need help. They have no idea what they are doing and are utterly useless on the phone.

      There are multiple account numbers now associated with my name.

      We
      thank the customer for bringing this to our attention. We have reviewed the customer's account and confirm that the charge the customer received for $452.00 is for a duct cleaning
      service that was completed on October 21st, 2024. Unfortunately due
      to a system transaction error, there was a delay in sending the customer the invoice for
      this service. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused as a result
      of this situation however, we confirm that this charge is valid for the service
      that was rendered. If the customer already paid for this service, we will ask that the customer provides a copy of the receipt for further investigation.

      In May 2024, I switched from a tank water heater to a tankless system through Ennecare. Since then, I’ve been billed for two services, even though the tank system was removed. I’ve contacted their customer service multiple times over the past year, but the issue was never resolved.

      Despite asking repeatedly for an email to submit my complaint in writing, they refused. Out of frustration, I began paying half the amount (for the actual service I use), but the remaining balance was sent to collections, and I’m now receiving constant calls.

      I called again recently and was promised a follow-up, but based on past experience, I don’t expect one. This time, I recorded the call for my records.

      I’m asking for:
      • A correction to my billing
      • Removal of incorrect charges and collection activity
      • Written confirmation of the resolution
      • An apology for the mishandling and stress this caused

      We thank the customer for bringing this to our attention. We have reviewed the account and identified that due to a clerical error, the customer continued to receive monthly charges after the rental gas water heater contract was terminated and replaced with the rental tankless. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. The error has been corrected and a billing adjustment has been processed on the customer’s account to reverse the extra charges. The credit has been posted on the customer's account and the gas water heater has been terminated.

      The essence of the complaint is that I paid Enercare for a 'heating protection plan' that promised to insure my boiler against the cost and discomfort of boiler outages. Despite paying them monthly for many years, when my boiler broke they did not fix it within 4 days and had no realistic plan to fix it in the following days. This required me to pay out of pocket to have a competent HVAC technician fix my boiler after giving Enercare many days and many opportunities to do the work themselves. When I sent the bills I had to pay to Enercare for reimbursement I was ignored, **** **, and stonewalled. it took multiple emails and 12 phone calls over 2 months before Enercare told me that they would not be paying the bills that were need to restore heat in my house

      The boiler was serviced by Enercare on January 10th 2025, it broke on January 16th, and I was in contact with them 10 or more times until I was forced to call competent help on the evening of January 20th.

      We thank the customer for bringing this to our
      attention. Unfortunately, Enercare is not a parts manufacturer or supplier and
      as such has no control over the timing of delivery of the parts. We make every
      effort to source the part as efficiently as possible and try our best to source
      them from alternate suppliers. We have reviewed the receipts the customer
      provided and confirm that the parts that were replaced by the 3rd party company, are NOT covered under Enercare’s heating protection plan; the
      replacements of these parts would have been a chargeable service. Based on the
      information we have on file; we will have to decline the customer’s request for
      full refund. However, in order to assist the customer with their situation and
      as a gesture of goodwill, we have offered the customer a credit on their
      account.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:

      Enercare stated they issued me a credit for the full amount however I have already paid the over due balance and am not looking for reimbursement of the balance that was owed. Enercare sent my file to collections without even advising me I had an overdue amount. I am requesting for the collections to be removed from my credit report as enercare sent me to collection before even informing me of what the issue and reason for their call was for nearly a year and as soon as I was contact by a collections agent she was the only person to be able to explain the file reason for payment dates of the payment that was issued for and a solution to pay the outstanding balance that was never explained to me in the 10 months enercare called me on a daily basis. I reject the solution and request to have the collection reported deleted form my file. 

      Sincerely,

      1. Tankless Water Heater at Primary Residence

      I have been with Enercare since 2015 under what was described as a rental agreement for a tankless water heater. However, this arrangement does not reflect a typical rental. A true rental allows the return of equipment at any time without further obligation. Instead, this agreement functions more like financing—except on significantly worse terms.

      Quotes I’ve received from other providers for comparable equipment under financing plans are far more affordable, typically paid off in under five years, and include 10-year parts and labour warranties. I’ve had this unit for over 10 years and am still being billed, with no clear pathway to ownership or termination.

      Additionally, when I signed the agreement, Enercare failed to correctly spell or fully include my legal name. This remained uncorrected until I brought it to your attention. The contract terms were also never clearly explained to me.


      2. Unauthorized Hot Water Tank at Second Property
      I also dispute a separate Enercare contract tied to my second property. A hot water tank was installed by the builder, and I was only made aware it was a rental after closing.

      I never signed, consented to, or authorized this agreement. When I contacted the builder, they directed me to Enercare. I find it unacceptable that such an arrangement was made without my explicit approval.

      Business Response

      *** ** ***** ***:

      Please be
      advised that as per the terms of the rental contract, the contract ends once
      the equipment has reached it’s useful life. The useful life of the equipment
      ends when Enercare determines in its reasonable discretion that the equipment
      is no longer commercially reasonable to repair, having regard to the age of the
      equipment, the cost of repair or other relevant factors and notice of such
      determination is given to you.
       You
      can review the terms & conditions of the rental water heater on our website
      or you can click on the link below and select the appropriate terms &
      conditions. Please review Section 9 under “Termination”.
       https://***************************************************************
       We
      would also like to clarify for you that the monthly rental charges are solely
      for the use and benefit of the water heater and does not contribute towards the
      buyout price of the equipment. The buyout price is an age-reduced price that
      reflects, among other things, the unpaid cost of the water heater and related
      installation, finance, and servicing costs at the time of the buyout; the price
      reduces every year based on a certain percentage when you’re on the rental
      program. Enercare’s contract, and in particular the buyout provision of the
      contract, was specifically approved by the Competition Bureau in 2010.
      Should you wish to terminate your rental
      water heater agreement, you must do so within your contractual agreement which
      includes paying the valid and enforceable termination fee, the current
      termination fee is $1,827.00+HST.

      -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      We
      thank the customer for bringing this issue to our attention. We confirm that
      the rental water heater installed at the address provided by the customer was listed in the Agreement of Purchase and Sale
      when the customer purchased the home from the builder. The details of the
      rental equipment would have been disclosed to the customer as part of their
      purchase of the home. If the customer had any concerns about the equipment, we
      expect that the customer would have raised those at the time they purchased the
      home from the builder

      In short, there appears to be a disconnect in communication between the Enercare technicians and Enercare customer service. The technician has advised that the parts to repair my rented hot water tanks are unavailable due to the company, ****, no longer supporting the product. However, when I call Enercare to find out the process for returning the **** rental equipment and cancelling the rental contract, they are insisting I need to pay buyout fees or upgrade to a new rental which will cost an additional ~$50 a month. I currently rent each unit for ~$90/month. An "upgrade" would result in an increased rental fee of $140/month/unit. I am not interested in an upgrade that would cost more money and if they are unable to repair the current units, I want the contracts cancelled with $0 buyout fees.

      Property Address: ** ******* ******* **** ***** ******** ** *** ***
      Issue: On Tuesday April 29th, my tenant sent a video message as the **** unit was emitting a continuous loud high pitched noise. We contacted Enercare about the issue and scheduled a service request for the unit to be repaired on Wednesday April 30th 2-6p.m. The technician immediately called me after attempting to repair the unit and explained that it cannot be repaired as parts are not available due to the **** company no longer supporting the product.

      Property Address: ** ******* ******* **** ***** ******** ** *** ***
      Issue: The rented equipment has been experiencing loss of pressure on a daily basis over the past couple of months, meaning if my tenant wanted to take a hot shower, they need to do manual do some adjustments on the hot water unit before taking a shower. As you can imagine, this will get annoying quite quickly.

      I have called Enercare customer service three times over the past week and still do not have an ETA on when this issue will be resolved - either the units to be repaired or buyout fees cancelled.

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

      It has been over 7 days and no one from Enercare has ever called me. Same as the previous times I directly called Enercare and was told there was an “urgent” flag on my file for someone to call me.
      Nevertheless I did call Enercare and had a tech revisit both units:

      ***** this was magically able to be fixed which leads to me wonder how many customers would have been told there unit was not fixable and they would have probably upgraded for a higher monthly fee. I’ll be writing to the regulator and letting them know about this concern. How could a tech leave a unit with a high pitched noise and no one from Enercare even bothers to deal with issue on an urgent basis? 

      ****: this unit again could not be fixed and my tenant has to manually adjust the unit daily. When will this be fixed?

      Thanks,

      We confirm that our technicians are licensed professionals who, at all times, carry out their duties in accordance with their obligations under the TSSA and in the best interests of customer safety. We also confirm that for unit#****, there was a part that was installed to complete the repair - the tank re-calibrated and is running to manufacturer specifications. For Unit#****, the tank is working to manufacturer specifications however, the technician recommended for the customer to upgrade the tank as there is water crossing on both showers. The technician also advised the customer to get a plumber and fix the plumbing. With respect to unit#**** – we have no record of the customer contacting Enercare requesting service. The last service call was in November
      2023. The customer can contact our customer service or book online for a service
      appointment.

      I have paid Enercare $243.65 for a water heater I do not own. They sent a technician to my home to verify that I do not have a Enercare water heater.
      They have continued to bill me as of I use their services. They are refusing to refund me the funds that I have paid and to close my account even though they have acknowledged I do not have a Enercare tank in my home. They are insisting that I show proof of home ownership which does not make sense. I have lived in my home for 15 years and they just started billing me in 2024. It should also be noted that the technician shared the last note he had on the water heater tank was from 2006 (years before I bought my home)!

      Dear Better Business Bureau,

      I am filing a complaint against Enercare Inc. regarding serious and ongoing billing and collections issues affecting myself and at least four neighbours. For over six months, we’ve dealt with inaccurate bills, incorrect account balances, and repeated unfulfilled assurances from Enercare representatives. Despite our efforts, these issues remain unresolved and are now escalating.

      In multiple cases, accounts have been unjustly referred to collections—even while under dispute. A collections agent even visited one neighbour’s home. In my own case, I was contacted by a third-party agency to whom I paid to settle the alleged Enercare debt. Later, Enercare claimed they had no record of referring my account to any agency, nor did their representatives recognize the agency's name. This raises serious concerns around customer data privacy and Enercare’s internal controls.

      The following accounts have been affected: ********, ********, ********, ********, and ********. The similarity of these cases suggests a systemic issue in Enercare’s billing and customer service systems.

      We are requesting:

      A full review and correction of affected accounts

      Written clarification of Enercare’s process for referring accounts to collections

      A pause on all collections activity while these cases are resolved

      A clear path for escalation and resolution

      Enercare’s failure to manage accounts transparently and securely has caused unnecessary stress to good-faith customers. We are seeking the BBB’s assistance in holding Enercare accountable and resolving this matter fairly.

      Sincerely,

      **** *****

      I had a hot water tank changed 3 years ago by another company. They did not return enercares tank. Me being a customer I have no clue how this stuff works. I paid 2 water tanks on the same property the entire time until enercare came in Dec to realize their tank was no longer here I still ended up paying 133$ in dec to close out my account ... now enercare sent me a new bill which is over 1000$ and after I was told by representatives that they will escalate it and have it closed i am getting daily phone calls and mail with interest. Management needs to contact me not some collection clerk I paid enercare for a tank that wasn't even here for 3 years instead of coming after me as an amazing client they should be seeking these funds from the company that should have returned your tank upon removal.

      We thank the customer for bringing this issue to our
      attention. We have reviewed the customer’s account and confirm that we have no
      record that the rental water heater was returned to Enercare. Further, we have no information that the
      water heater was purchased by the customer. Since it’s been confirmed that the
      Enercare equipment has been removed and have, therefore, forced a termination
      of the rental contract, a buyout has been processed in accordance with the
      customer’s contractual obligations and in order to stop the monthly rental
      charges on their account. However, as a gesture of goodwill, we have waived the
      mandatory buyout charge. As an additional goodwill gesture, we have also offered
      a discount on the outstanding balance the customer has on their  account. If the customer provides a receipt or
      any documentation that can confirm that the rental water heater was returned,
      we will refund the customer the buyout payment they recently made and process
      the necessary billing adjustment on their account.

      Enercare keeps on sending me invoices for the rental of a domestic hot water heater, but I have not entered into a contract with them. There’s no way to reach them in writing to have written documentation of this. So they want me to pay for a contract, but won’t give me a copy of it.

      I am rejecting this response because I have not been provided a written contract I would have supposedly entered with this company, as per the Ontario Consumer Protection Act. I request to see the contract so that I may proceed ahead with the proper documentation

      agree.  However, Enercare’s position remains that it has complied with all
      legal obligations.  You are not entitled to any compensation from
      Enercare.  Despite that position, Enercare has made a goodwill, without
      prejudice offer to settle your complaint. Unless you are interested in
      accepting that offer, this will be Enercare’s last communication with you

      We have ******** a redacted copy of the water heater contract.

      We re-confirm that the customer assumed the
      rental when they took possession of the home. If the customer had any concerns
      with respect to the rental items in the home, we would expect that the customer
      and their lawyer addressed those concerns with the seller prior to purchasing
      the home. The customer has been advised that if they are  disputing the assumption of the rental, they
      will be required to provide a copy of the Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA) for
      our review. If the rental was not disclosed on the PSA, we will reverse any
      rental charges the customer has received and process a buyout to the previous
      owner.
