Dear Keith, I just wanted to drop you a line about our recent purchase of a Alpine Air Purifier from your shop. The air purifier does a wonderful job cleansing the air in our showroom and in rug cleaning plant. It actually breaks down odors in oriental rugs that are caused by animals. The air quality just seems so much healthier. I will gladly recommend your company to my customers if they are ever in the market for a vacuum or air purifier.
Sincerely, Robert George SK Hamrah Carpets

Dear Keith, Many thanks for always coming to the rescue! -Bonnie

Hi Keith- I just wanted to thank you for recommending the Honda 520a that I bought this Fall. I had about 30 inches of snow on my driveway after the recent blizzard, and wondered how this snow blower would work under such extreme conditions. The answer is great! True, I had to go much slower than usual, but it sure beat using a shovel. And even at the end of my driveway where the plows piled up snow, I still was able to use this. You were right in telling me to skip the extra money for an electric start. It took only two pulls of the starter cord to get this going, and not a lot of effort was required. When a product works even better than expected, I like to tell the dealer, since most people only comment when they have a problem. If anyone has any doubts at how well this snow blower will perform, feel free to show them this email or contact me directly.
Regards,

To: keith@etpetersen.com Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2006 4:01 PM Subject: Lady Bug Hi Keith, this is a follow-up to our phone conversation a few months ago in regard to the Lady Bug Steamer. You have my permission to use my recommendation for this product. When I called looking for a floor scrubber to clean my nearly 2000 square feet of floor tile, I never expected to end up with an entirely different product. After your sales pitch on the steamer, I decided to buy it and am I ever glad that I did. This machine is wonderful. It certainly goes beyond clean. After watching the DVD that came with it, I have cleaned a multitude of things in my home. We just completed changing our screened in porch to a sunroom. I cleaned the existing cedar boards with the Lady Bug. It was amazing what came off the six year old boards. I am very happy with the Lady Bug and I appreciate your expertise of the product.

Dear Mr. Petersen: When was the last time you bought a product and was so impressed with its performance that you actually wrote a letter of thanks? Back in September 1992 my husband and I bought such a product from The Eardly T. Petersen Co.
The Princess Vacuum Cleaner was recommended to us by a friend in the carpet cleaning business. Like most people we were skeptical. When the machine was demonstrated for us at the store we were impressed, but still, only mildly enthusiastic. However, when we got home and used it on our own carpeting we were so excited that we literally called the store to say “thank you.” What is so unique about this machine is that whatever is vacuumed up is contained in the canister. There is no exhaust spewing out mold and dust back through the air. Using this vacuum cleaner all but eliminated our cat’s winter allergies to mold and mildew. We were so amazed by this that we called our veterinarian to tell him we would no longer need to spend money on allergy shots. This did not please him. If you have a hot-air heating system, you know how it is to wake up with a dry and stuffy nose. We can honestly say that after using the Princess Vacuum Cleaner for a few week, this too was virtually eliminated. Before purchasing this incredible vacuum cleaner, we had our doubts. However, we can say without any hesitation that this is truly a product that lives up to its name and reputation. Another plus is that it is made in America.

Dear Mr. Petersen, I wish to thank you for recommending the Alpine Living Air Machine (Model XL-155) which I purchased from you last year. After setting up the machine and letting it run for several days, I noticed that my respiratory allergies (stuffy nose) were completely gone!!! Since then, it has been running for 24 hours a day and my breathing has become much easier. The air in my room smells fresh and clean, just like unpolluted outdoor air after a rain shower. Again, I wish to thank you for recommending and the Alpine Living Air Maching company for making such a marvelous air purifier that really lives up to its name.

Hi – I have been very impressed by your knowledge of your products, and the quality. It’s been a reminder that you get what you pay for, there’s no free lunch, etc. etc. Before I bought the Stihl I had been at Home Depot and bought a trimmer and edger attachment. I spent a week assembling it and trying to get it started. Finally the pull string broke. Needless to say I returned it and then paid you a visit. I’ll be back. Andy

It was a pleasure meeting you and purchasing my snow blower your company. You guys remind me of the days when people actually knew about the products they were selling. I have been trying to locate that Stihl sythetic oil for 3 years. I wish that I had purchased my 4 mix weed wacker from you instead of the outfit I did. They didn’t even know that Stihl offered a synthetic oil or that the 4 mix motor should use it. I will have service for you on my mowers, 4 mix wacker, and of course snow blower… Thanks Keith -Charlie G

February 20, 2016 Dear Mr. Peterson, Thank you for doing a great job on the repair and tune-up of our Miele vacuum. It was a pleasure doing business with you. So, how often should I have a tune up on my Miele Delphi vacuum to keep it running well? Thanks, Lee Ramire

Keith- Thanks again for getting us the replacement hose for our Miele. We appreciate the personalized service we get as a ET Petersen’s customer. The hose is working great and more importantly, the wife is happy.

Dear Keith, We have had our Alpine Living Air Machines for quite a while now, and there have consequently been a number of positive things we have consistently noticed. Firstly, they have solved the mildew problems in our basement. Newly washed laundry left in the washing machine for only two hours used to have a strong mildew smell. We put a little Bora in the basement, and that was the end of the mildew odor. Also, some time ago when I did extensive redecorating, the odor of pain and polyurethane was banished very quickly. We ran the XL-15 constantly as usual, and anyone entering the house noticed almost no paint odors. Just recently, after we vacuumed and started up one of our air conditioners for the first time this season, I immediately began to cough and choke. We brought the Apline machine near and focused it on the air conditioner as it ran. This is a step we routinely take every spring with all the air conditioners, and which we mistakenly thought we could omit this time). My coughing stopped almost immediately. Living in Staten Island, we have a lot of pollution to contend with—–smells from the dump, stench and noxious fumes from the New Jersey refineries, etc. This has been not only annoying, but also worrisome. However, the Alpine takes away the odors and gives us the assuarance that at least the air in our home is pure and safe to breathe. We plan to take the Bora with us on vacation and put it in the beach house we’re renting. That’ll take care of any mold, mildew etc., often found in these places. In short, we are happy to let you know that we are very glad of these machines and wouldn’t think of doing without them.
Yours very truly, Ruth Walker

Dear Mr. Petersen, Thank you for introducing us to the Alpine Living Air Machine. We are all breathing easier. The air we are now breathing smells a lot cleaner too. We have a small Dachshund that we purchased while living abroad, which seemed to need a weekly bath to eliminate that “doggy” smell. Since we have been using the Alpine Living Air Machine we have noticed that 1) the dog doesn’t seem to smell anymore and 2) the house doesn’t smell “doggy”. A friend from Massachusetts visited us for a week last month. Past visits were full of complaints about allergies and breathing discomforts. Happily this visit we had none of those complaints. What we heard instead was how well she had slept and how easily she was breathing (hooray!). She had recently spent a LARGE sum of money making her home a more allergy free environment. Although she told us that her Asthmatic condition had improved with her additions, she also told us that her expensive improvements didn’t make her feel as good as our little air purifier had! During our year and a half in Europe, I honestly do not remember not feeling “stuffy”. It felt like I had a perpetual cold. Can I attribute feeling better to the Alpine Living Air Machine? Maybe, maybe not…all I know for a fact is that I am back to normal and breathing well again since we have had our little air purifier! Although no one in my family has asthma, or any known allergies we are all breathing better, feeling better (and smelling better :), woof…). Thanks again.

Thanks for letting me know AND thanks for the offer to answer questions….it’s among the reasons I bought from you -Excellent web site with extensive information -Brick & mortar store with 50 years in business -Your “About Us” statement on your website with a commitment to service Thanks…

The Eardly Peterson Co. On Feb 3, 2011 I had two airo swiss humidifiers model AOS 7142. They both stopped misting. Your tech support inspected 1 unit and suggested to send them back to manufacture. Just to update you on the great service they did provide. We mailed out both units on Feb 4 and they were not repairable. So they send us 2 new units at no charge, just a 60.00 fee for 1 year warranty on each new unit, since the original units were almost 4 years old. Airo-Swiss stood behind their product without any hassles. Great service. We also thank you for your time inspecting the units and the pleasure of doing business with you.
Many Thanks, Oliver & Lisa Kaufmann
