New Jersey HVAC Veteran Takes Helm at Bloomfield Cooling, Heating & Electric

Jack Lamb, a long-serving employee who started as an electrician in 2000, has assumed ownership of Bloomfield Cooling, Heating & Electric, Inc., one of North Jersey's leading HVAC contractors. The transition, effective January 1, 2025, marks the end of founder Michael DeJoseph's 35-year leadership of the company.

The leadership change represents a strategic succession plan initiated in 2023, highlighting the company's commitment to internal talent development and business continuity. Lamb's progression from electrician to owner exemplifies a successful career development model in the trades industry, where skilled workforce retention remains a critical challenge.

Under Lamb's recent management, the company has expanded its technological capabilities to enhance customer service, including the implementation of technician tracking systems and digital customer portals. These innovations reflect broader industry trends toward digitalization in home services and could signal further modernization under the new ownership.

The ownership transition comes at a significant time for the HVAC industry, as homeowners increasingly seek energy-efficient solutions and smart home technologies. Lamb's experience with PSE&G and Carrier rebate programs positions the company to capitalize on growing consumer interest in energy-efficient home improvements and government incentive programs.

Serving six counties in North Jersey, Bloomfield Cooling, Heating & Electric maintains its status as a Carrier factory-authorized dealer and has received multiple industry accolades, including the Carrier President's Award. The company's continued stability under new ownership could have implications for regional market competition and service standards in the residential and commercial HVAC sector.
