Virginia Business //September 2, 2025//
Woodfin’s parents, John and Anne, started Woodfin Heating in 1977 to sell heating oil, growing it into one of the largest privately held HVAC-related businesses in Virginia. A Virginia Military Institute and University of Virginia Darden School of Business alum, Jack Woodfin began working with his parents in 1995 as a retail manager. He took over the business in 2010 after his father’s death.
Woodfin Co. provides HVAC installation and servicing, electrical and plumbing services, indoor air solutions, home security and fuel delivery. The company owns a range of other businesses, including EMC Mechanical Services, which Woodfin also leads as CEO, and Capital Heating and Cooling, as well as 20 convenience stores in the greater Richmond area.
Woodfin played on VMI’s varsity tennis team and still plays as a hobby. His other hobbies include watching NASCAR and go-kart racing. To celebrate reaching 10,000 Google reviews in June, Woodfin Co. announced it would donate 10,000 meals across Richmond, in partnership with Shalom Farms.
