Meet Our Team John Wahl

Founder & Brand Ambassador John Wahl discovered his knack for HVAC work as a teenager, aiding his uncles and quickly excelling at designing and fabricating custom ductwork. At just 19, he launched Wahl Heating & Cooling in his parents’ garage, relying solely on word-of-mouth buzz—often boosted by “Bill the Barber,” his father, who spread the news of John’s honest service around Beechview. John’s early dedication to superior workmanship laid the foundation for what is now known as the “Wahl Way”—combining family-focused principles with state-of-the-art home comfort solutions. Although he has stepped back from daily operations, John remains deeply committed to preserving the values that have defined Wahl for decades. His focus is ensuring the name “Wahl” continues to stand for quality, reliability, and the genuine care that started it all.

Meet Our Team
Sharon Wahl

Co-Founder & Corporate Officer

Shortly after marrying John in 1986, Sharon brought her Bradford Business School background and organizational prowess to the family venture. She spearheaded the creation of the company’s first logo—complete with a brick “wall” to teach people how to say “Wahl”—and laid the groundwork for processes that still guide the business today.

Sharon’s adaptability has led her through nearly every office role, from Customer Service Representative and Dispatcher to Accounting Manager and General Manager. Notably, she helped implement purchase orders and the Preferred Customer Maintenance Agreement, offering annual service benefits to loyal clients.

Currently, Sharon focuses on corporate governance, finance, and HR, ensuring that the company remains stable and poised for future success.

Meet Our TeamJennifer Wahl

President

Jennifer Wahl’s leadership journey began in the field of education, where she taught high school English and supported at-risk families. After graduating from Keystone Oaks High School, she earned two Bachelor’s degrees: one (cum laude) in Speech and Communications from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania and another (summa cum laude) in English/Secondary Education from Point Park University.

When Jennifer joined the family business in 2007, she brought not just her teaching expertise but also a deep commitment to personal growth, staff development, and customer-focused care. Today, she oversees company strategy, training programs, and customer service initiatives, guided by a “triple win” philosophy: invest in employee well-being, deliver outstanding value to customers, and ensure the organization continues to flourish.

Outside of Work

Jennifer enjoys spending quality time at home with her wife, Maggie, and their dogs, PJ and Sydney. She loves reading, snowboarding, and taking peaceful walks with her dogs. Whether she’s planning a tiny-home getaway or relaxing on a beach vacation, Jennifer prioritizes making meaningful memories with those she loves.

Meet Our TeamDavid Wahl

Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

Since joining the family business in 2006, David Wahl has driven the evolution of Wahl’s operations with unwavering energy and vision. Earning both Journeyman and Master Plumber credentials through the rigorous Associated Master Plumbers of Allegheny County (AMPAC) program, David immersed himself in every facet of the trade—installation, service, and sales—before taking on an executive role in 2012.

Leading with Purpose

David’s leadership is powered by a clear mission: to protect Pittsburgh-area homes from hidden hazards, deliver top-tier craftsmanship, and continually refine the customer experience. He actively collaborates with industry mentors, coaches, and business consultants, ensuring that the entire team benefits from cutting-edge methods and best-in-class standards. Under David’s guidance, Wahl Family Heating, Cooling & Plumbing invests heavily in professional development, challenges outdated norms, and embraces a commitment to integrity—all while treating every project as if it’s the most important of the year.

Beyond the Office

Away from the conference table and job sites, David channels his passion for growth and self-improvement as a competitive powerlifter. He also enjoys hunting, cooking, shooting sports, snow skiing, and dog training with his wife, Lindsay, and their boxer, Max. David’s drive for excellence—whether perfecting a powerlifting technique or upgrading a home’s HVAC system—stays front and center in all he does.

Maggie McCurdy-Wahl

Installation Coordination, Dispatcher, Warehouse Manager

Maggie joined the team in 2007 as a Customer Service Representative and married into the family officially in 2013. From the beginning, she picked up the industry quickly providing an empathetic friendly voice for Wahl’s customers. In 2008, she moved from CSR to Dispatcher where she ensures that the right technician is sent to the right job based on customer need and technician skill set. She was an instrumental part of the team that made it possible for Wahl to more than double the size of the Service Department.

Maggie’s role with the company continued to expand as Wahl grew, and she continued to dispatch but also took over the role of warehouse manager. She organizes and restocks parts, supplies, and materials for the trucks, shop, and installations. She works closely with the Install and Sales Managers to stage installs, coordinate trips for the parts runners, and to restock the service trucks.

When she’s not helping customers or technicians on the phone, she is managing the maintenance and organization of the building and the lot.
