The household appliances brand Korting (pronounced curting or incorrectly korting) belongs to the Gorenje Group. Initially, the brand was German, but later only the name remained from the German. Development and production of goods run by an international corporation.
The main product line of the brand is various kitchen appliances (hoods, stoves, refrigerators, dishes, etc.), household air conditioning units. Industrial sites and development centers are located in different countries: Slovenia, Romania, China, Ukraine, Italy, Turkey. The company's products are considered to be of high quality, in the mass they are classified as economy class.
Manufactured air conditioning systems
The company does not have its own production of climatic equipment. All air conditioning systems are manufactured in China. Most likely, the models are being developed in the same place, since the group of international companies also does not have specialized centers for the development of climate control equipment.
There is no data at which specific enterprise the assembly takes place and what components are included in the equipment. The assembly can be carried out at different enterprises and from different components. However, the company carries out quality control and you can be sure that all products are uniform in this sense. Those. there is no roulette, how lucky with the purchase.
There are no catalogs with series of Korting air conditioners. Models are presented in general product catalogs of the company. Similarly, sales are carried out in various household appliances stores.
Mobile floor standing air conditioners monoblocks
Models are identified by letters in the abbreviation KACM. The letter M here means mobile. There is no systematic table of designations. The symbols at the end indicate the color: W - white, S - silver.
Another difference between mobile air conditioners is control from a retractable LCD panel. The models are provided with a self-diagnosis system. Error codes are displayed on the pull-out panel. Serviced area: 20 - 40 sq.m.
Complex filtration systems are not provided in the devices. Some models can be equipped with conventional mechanical fine filters. The corrugated pipe can be led out through a special flange to the street directly through the wall. In this case, a portable air conditioner is similar to a stationary built-in one.
In terms of operating efficiency, Korting mobile all-in-ones are comparable to stationary devices. Which doesn't happen so often. Usually mobile air conditioners lose in functionality to their stationary counterparts.
Wall split systems
- KACMS... A range of standard start-stop systems. Works in 4 main modes: cold, heat, drying and ventilation. The area serviced by air conditioners at a standard height is from 20 to 80 sq.m. The design is made in several color schemes: W - white, S - silver, B - black. Equipped with display and remote control;
- KACMI... A series of compressor control systems with an inverter. The cooled area, depending on the power of the model, is from 20 to 60 sq.m. They also work in 4 main modes. Remote control, information is duplicated on the display. Built-in automatic ice cleaner mode (periodically the system includes defrosting of the external heat exchanger). The color schemes are white and silver.
Comparative characteristics of models
The company periodically updates its products. The models shown in the comparison table below may already be discontinued. But instead of them, the release of analogs has begun, while the characteristics usually differ slightly in the direction of improvement.

There are no specialized sales and service centers for the company's HVAC equipment. A sales assistant in a regular home appliance store may not be competent enough to answer questions. On the other hand, the technique is reliable and does not cause any particular complaints.
Korting Console & Air Conditioners Instructions
The instruction for air conditioners is included in the equipment delivery set. Since sales are carried out through ordinary household appliances stores, it is recommended that you carefully familiarize yourself with the features of the model yourself.
The instructions provide basic recommendations for the operation of the equipment, its installation, and troubleshooting. There is also a list of contacts where you can contact if you need to repair or replace failed equipment.
Korting air conditioner error codes
All models of air conditioners have a self-diagnosis system. If an error is detected, its code is displayed on the remote control and duplicated on the display (located on the indoor unit or on the case of the mobile device).
The equipment belongs to complex technical devices, therefore, cases of failures and incorrect display of errors are not excluded. Therefore, before starting to look for the cause of the failure, it is recommended to restart the system. To do this, you will need to completely de-energize the equipment for a while. If after switching on the error does not disappear, then proceed to troubleshooting.
The error codes are unified, since all equipment is not a unique development of the company. The best way not to break the device is to contact a specialized service center. And in the case of attempts to independently repair the external blocks of split systems, it is also unsafe.
User reviews
There are no sharply negative reviews about Korting conditioners. There are few models, but the manufacturer has made sure that their quality is comparable to the quality of the rest of the product line.
Mostly buyers mark a low price. And, accordingly, there are no special expectations from the products positioned as economy class. The technician performs the declared functions clearly. There is an increased noise level, but not particularly worried for use in office premises.
The appearance also raises no objections. The classic corting air conditioner fits into any interior.
During installation, the service organization gives recommendations on how to maintain and clean the equipment. But without cleaning and routine maintenance, any split system will not last long.
