Dear Keith:

Thanks for recommending the Flair air filtration system.

As you know, I purchased two units for my daughter and her family and three for our house in Mountainside. All of us notice the improvement in air quality. I am particularly appreciative of the performance of the unites since my daughter has cat for pets. I am extremely allergic to cats and was never able to stay more than a few hours at her house. A few weeks ago, we visited her for the entire day and I noticed no ill effects from my allergy.

Best regards.

Sincerely,
Charlie Kiley

Dear Keith, Many thanks for your excellent service-as usual. Hopefully the new location for the vacuum will improve its longevity (and maybe, we’ll have a dry basement again.) -Bonnie

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

I’m very pleased with my Alpine air purifier unit as it is especially compact being 5 1/2″ x 7 1/2 ” x 2 1/4″ and easily portable within home and abroad. Its economy involves a one time investment (purchase) with no filters and a 5c per day worth of electricity. Its use not only expunges embarrassing household odors but incorporates the fresh wholesome aura of outdoor elements into my indoor health, life and oxygen. It is conveniently regulated and maintenanced according to the individual preference of ozone density, out-put and shut-off. This state of the art applicance stands up to current technological performance along with a 3-year warranty.

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,

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 Keith, Thanks so much for introducing us to the XL 15 air purifier, as it has changed our lives dramatically. About 2 years ago when we first purchased this wonder-machine, we had a lot of painting going on in our kitchen. Every day we were forced to endure an “itchy” and instable environmental – I remember being able to feel the air particles go up my nose. However, when we flipped switch of the XL 15, within 1 hour, my nose was HAPPY. It felt so good, so wonderful, truly an amazing conversersion of the air quality.

Dear Mr. Petersen: I want to thank for the courteous and competent service I received at your store earlier today. The friendly atmostphere and efficient handling of the problem with my Miele vacuum were outstanding. As a former small business owner I can appreciate how trying these past few years have been for you. The fact that you have been able to survive with a sense of humor intact is very impressive. I can assure you that I will tell everyone I know about your superb customer service.

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

Dear Keith It was a pleasure doing business with you. The HONDA ES6500 generator I purchased was everything you said it was, and more! The licensed experienced electrician that installed the subpanel and the home hook up was amazed with the generator’s efficiency. He was also very impressed on how quiet the generator ran. After his installation, we conducted a test. While the ES 6500 was running, my home furnace was turned on, as well as a light in every room, home computer, TV, refrigerator, and some electrical appliances. The ES6500 did not strain at all, the generator’s imonitor panel did not register any problems, nor did the engine’s noise increase significantly. I would highly recommend The Eardly Petersen Company of Westfield to anyone seeking to purchase a quality home generator. Brian Taylor

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.

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.

Dear Mr. Petersen: I want you to know that our life has been made more pleasant as a result of installing the XL15 and Bora Living Air Machines in our home. We genuinely breathe fresh air every day – no dog smells (we have three), no musty odors and we are dust free! What a change! Most of all – I honestly believe that my breathing problems have improved – my sinuses are less problematic. If you remember – I was a skeptic! Now I’m a true believer in this wonderful product. Please keep presenting it to others!

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

Dear Doug/Keith, I am and was overwhelmed by your heartfelt gesture not to accept payment for the repair of the trimmer the other day. There will probably never be a time when I shall not recommend you and your company to any I know for the products that you carry and service. There is something about a dealership likes yours that makes one feel confident about spreading the word that–“Petersen’s is in town, and why not use them.” There is more quality in those who run your business, than in the products that you carry. With the help of Almighty God I trust that you will always find success in all that you do, and that your attitude will always remain true to those around you. There should be a volume written about your company, but I know that it would take you away from your work to read it, and that is not too sound. It’s just nice to know that many who look to Petersen’s for help, are happy, as myself, that it is so-o-o obvious. Thank you a thousand times over.
