Meet the Irwin team by starting with Chad, the owner of Warhold Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning in Irwin, PA. He brings 31 years of experience in the plumbing and HVAC industry and pairs field work with a business degree from Penn State University. This page covers his licenses, how he trains our technicians, his areas of expertise, and the community groups he gives time to.
Chad, Our Irwin Master Plumber
Chad is a Master Plumber based in Irwin who also holds a City of Pittsburgh HVAC license and a DOT gas line credential.
He leads a company based in Irwin that serves homeowners in Westmoreland and Allegheny Counties. His own work spans plumbing, heating, cooling, boilers, gas lines, and water and sewer service projects.
Chad stresses upfront pricing, clear explanations, safe installations, and compliance with local requirements. Field experience and business training both shape how he handles day-to-day business decisions, and those priorities shape every job our crews take on.
How Chad Leads Irwin HVAC Technician Training
Irwin HVAC technician training happens every Tuesday, when the team meets for an education session on technical topics and communication. Chad also takes an active role in customer concerns and day-to-day business decisions.
Topics have included water pressure and thermal expansion, heat exchanger assessment, hard start kits, and system sizing. The communication side covers how to explain repair options, document findings, and help homeowners understand the condition of their systems.
Training matters because a homeowner should leave a visit understanding what was found, not just what was done.
Meet the Irwin Team Through Their Areas of Expertise

Community Roots of Our Irwin Master Plumber
