Tying the Kiturami boiler is a set of measures related to connecting boiler equipment to power supply, water supply, heating systems, fuel lines and smoke exhaust systems. It is advisable to piping the boiler with the help of qualified specialists and in accordance with the instructions indicated in the quality certificate.
Electrical connection
Boiler equipment operates when powered by 220V. When connecting the boiler to the power supply system, the following recommendations must be observed:
1 - to prevent accidents, electric shock or short circuit caused by electricity leakage in the boiler, grounding is necessary. The grounding point must be at least 300 mm deep.
2 - it is necessary to have a separate socket, brought out specifically for connecting the boiler. This socket must be installed at a distance of at least 300 mm from the boiler equipment.
3 - it is desirable to include a stabilizing device in the power supply system.
Figure #1 shows a standard electrical connection system.
Connection to heating, water supply and fuel lines
1 - when connected to a heating system, installation is required stop valves, filters and additional expansion tanks, which will compensate for the expansion of the coolant.
2 - when connected to a hot water supply system, it is also necessary to install shut-off valves, filters and expansion tanks. When using low-quality water, it is recommended to install a water treatment system, which will increase the life of the boiler and ensure reliable performance mixing devices.
3 - when connecting to the pipeline, in addition to installing filters and shut-off valves, it is recommended to install pressure reducers designed to protect the boiler from excessive pressure in the main pipeline. At low pressure in the main pipeline, it is recommended to install pressure boosting stations.
4 – when connecting to the fuel line, it is obligatory to install additional filters and shut-off valves.
Figure #2 the standard piping system (downward piping) for the Kiturami Turbo boiler is shown.
Installation of a smoke exhaust system.
When piping the boiler with a smoke exhaust system, it is necessary to install ventilation pipes with the necessary angle of inclination from the boiler in order to prevent condensate from entering the combustion chamber, fan and smoke exhauster, which can lead to breakage of these elements.

1 – the chimney must be installed in such a way as to avoid the wind pressure zone in the upper part of the chimney, to protect the chimney from precipitation. Installing a chimney in a wind pressure zone reduces the efficiency of the boiler and may cause emergency shutdowns.
2 – if within 1 m of the chimney there is high building, it is necessary to install the chimney higher this building not less than 1 m. More detailed instructions and requirements for boiler piping are given in the operating manuals that are attached to the boiler equipment when it is sold.
Compliance with all the requirements specified in the accompanying documentation will avoid problems during the operation of the boiler, increase its service life and your safety.
Despite the development alternative energy, humanity is still actively using the usual sources of energy, in particular, gas. The South Korean manufacturer has been producing heating boilers for more than a decade and is rightfully one of the world leaders in this field. It makes sense to dwell on the products of this manufacturer.
About Kiturami products
The company was founded in 1962 and has been honing its craftsmanship in the production of heating boilers over the years. During this time, the company's products have gained confidence in the markets of Russia, Japan, Europe and the rest of the world.
The main activity of the manufacturer is the production of heating boilers, chimneys and other elements necessary for the installation of the heating system.
You can select such types of products as:
- boilers, and models are available that run on both gas and liquid or solid fuels. Solid fuel boilers Kiturami can work either on ordinary firewood, or on wood pellets (pellets) and are characterized by high efficiency;
Note!
The boilers are produced double-circuit, so that they can be used not only for heating, but also for the needs of hot water supply.
- fuel tanks;
- fuel pumps;
- expansion tanks;
- chimneys etc.
Overview of heating boilers
Given the cheapness of gas for the population in our country, gas-fired Kiturami heating boilers are especially popular. Such devices are characterized by compact size, high power, ease of maintenance and installation. There are several series of heating devices - 3 series marked World (Plus, 3000 and 5000), as well as Twin Alpha.
Features of boilers of the World 3000 and 5000 series
Particular attention is paid to the issue of heating efficiency - common feature all Kiturami heating devices, not only gas ones (efficiency exceeds 90%).
As for the World series, we can distinguish such features of their work as:
- several modes of operation - for ease of adjustment, the modes are designated as "Absence", "Shower", etc.;
- advanced safety block - gas analyzers instantly “feel” a gas leak and turn off the device;
- turbocharging guarantees stable draft, combustion products are instantly drawn into the chimney;
- enough power to heat a large area;
- in steps of literally 1 ᵒС, you can adjust the temperature hot water;
- automation constantly monitors the condition of the main components of the heating circuit. For example, if there are power outages, the boiler will turn off, because circulation pump will stop working, and the circulation of the coolant will be at risk.
- the self-diagnosis function looks curious. In the event of a malfunction by the illuminated digit, a person can determine the malfunction himself (of course, with the help of technical documentation).
The only fly in the ointment in this barrel of honey can be considered a slightly unusual design of the boiler. In particular, in the World series, a person unfamiliar with Kiturami products may be confused by the location of the air intake and exhaust of combustion products. When replacing the chimney with your own hands, this can be a small problem, but this drawback cannot be considered critical.
Celebrating Science - Twin Alpha Series
Devices of this series are considered the most modern and technologically advanced.
Among the features of Twin Alpha boilers it is worth noting:
- extremely economical, when switching to standby mode, they consume about 1 W of energy;
- the heat exchanger is not made of steel, but of pure copper and aluminum, the thermal conductivity of these metals is higher than that of steel.
The series includes 5 models differing in power and dimensions. So, heating boilers Kiturami Alpha 13R at its peak can produce a power of about 15.1 kW, which will be enough to heat a living area of 150 m2, while in hot water mode, water can be supplied at a rate of 8.6 l / min. The weight of this model is 26 kg.
The most powerful Alpha 30R model produces up to 34.8 kW and is able to heat a house with an area of 340 m2; in hot water mode, water is supplied at a rate of 20 l / min.
Note!
Despite the much greater power, the dimensions and weight of the boilers do not differ much.
So, the mentioned models of boilers differ only in width (the more powerful one is 5 cm wider) and weight (the Alpha 30R model weighs 3 kg more).
So there will be no problems with installation.
As for the cost, the Twin Alpha series is on average 10-12 thousand rubles cheaper than World3000.
For example, the Alpha 20R model costs about 30 thousand rubles, and the price of a device of the World3000 series comparable in terms of power is about 42 thousand rubles.
Installation Features
- the weight wall model is 30 - 45 kg, so it is not recommended to place it on light partitions, the best option for installation, you can consider a load-bearing wall;
- it is recommended to use a rubber gasket to reduce noise from possible vibration;
- it is desirable that the installation site is not waterlogged.
Particular attention should be paid to the installation of the chimney, for the removal of combustion products is used coaxial chimney. To facilitate the work, the use of telescopic chimneys is allowed.
The installation instructions for the pipe look like this:
- when connected individual elements a sealing tape is necessarily used, and the tightness of the joint is achieved by tightening the connecting bolts;
- in the case of a pipe outlet outside the wall, the manufacturer recommends limiting maximum length within 2.5 m;
Note!
The pipe is given a slope of 3-5ᵒ in order to ensure the drainage of condensate.
- as for the installation of a pipe through the roof, it is necessary that a free descent to the pipe be provided throughout the length of the pipe;
- the horizontal section of the pipe in the section from the outlet of the boiler to the vertical section should not exceed 90 cm, otherwise the draft may deteriorate.
Summarizing
Heating boilers are popular not only in country houses, but also in the city, because heating system gives a lot of advantages over the centralized one. Kiturami boilers can be attributed to one of the most high-tech offers on the market, high efficiency, durability, the possibility of flexible regulation of work only contribute to the growth in popularity of the products of this manufacturer.

Every day more and more attention is drawn to Russian market heating technology, made in Korea, offering high quality, operational reliability and reasonable cost. Overview of boilers from Kiturami, owner reviews and description specifications will help you better understand the types and features of products, as well as make right choice at the time of buying.
The range of heating boilers from the Korean manufacturer Kiturami is grouped according to several characteristics:
- type of installation - wall or floor;
- type of energy source used - liquid, solid fuel, gas or combined;
- the possibility of hot water supply - single or double-circuit;
- combustion chamber - open or closed.
Description of gas, diesel, solid fuel and combined boilers Kiturami:
1. Korean liquid fuel heating boilers Kiturami Turbo have a set of characteristics that can fully meet the needs of users:
- The turbocyclone burner creates an aerodynamic flow, increasing efficiency.
- Turbocharging contributes to the secondary afterburning of combustion products in a specially installed cylindrical chamber and their forced removal.
- The security system includes sensors for combustion, temperature control and overheating, as well as the absence of coolant and fuel.
- This series uses new model chimney Kiturami, the efficiency of which is 2-3% higher than that of a similar class of boilers.
Turbo is one of the most economical boilers on the market with an average consumption of 8 l/day.
2. Wall double-circuit gas boilers Kiturami heating systems (World 3000, World 5000, World Plus and Twin Alpha) are distinguished by affordable cost and reliability. Built-in circulation pump and expansion tank facilitate installation, and a set of installed sensors performs safety control gas equipment.
Buying a World Plus-13R gas boiler will cost 32 thousand rubles, and the cost of Twin Alpha of the same capacity will be about 24,000. Structurally, the Kiturami TGB representative can be called an analogue of Turbo, but designed to work on liquefied gas. Repeated passage of combustion products in a steel three-way heat exchanger reduces noise and increases efficiency. The turbocyclone burner of a stationary heat generator of the KSOG series ensures stable operation of the boiler with pressure drops in the gas main, and also contributes to the secondary combustion of gases. The electronic control unit and the thermostat-regulator maintain the desired microclimate in the premises.
3. Kiturami biofuel heating boilers for home KRP series have the following features:
- The feed auger doses the wood fuel automatically.
- The complex design of the heat exchanger in the fire tube and water tubes allows increasing the efficiency up to 92%.
- A circulation pump is built into the water tank of the heat generator for maximum heat transfer.
- Multi-stage gas outlet avoids kickback flame.
- Automatic cleaning system grate mechanically removes "cakes" of sintered pellets, which prevents overspending.
- Ignition of granules is carried out by a ceramic heating element of the Japanese company FKK.
The cost of a biofuel boiler Kiturami KRP-20 is about 140,000 rubles.
4. STS presents stationary combined boilers compact dimensions for installation even in small spaces. Design features distinguish this series with efficiency and a guarantee of long-term use (10 years):
- Kiturami's turbo-cyclone burner and special swirl screen promote complete combustion of the fuel and reduce emissions carbon monoxide into the environment.
- For the manufacture of the heat exchanger, an improved grade of stainless steel with a patented welding technology is used.
- Advanced autodiagnostic system.
The Kiturami model range includes cast iron boilers (KF series) designed for heating small spaces, the disadvantage of which is the need for periodic monitoring of the firebox and laying firewood. But the price of solid fuel boilers KF is two times lower than the pellet "brothers" - about 70,000 rubles.

What you need to know when choosing?
The wide assortment range offered by the Korean manufacturer is extensive, which makes it difficult for the average consumer to purchase. Therefore, the selection heating equipment should be carried out according to the main characteristics of Kiturami:
- Type of fuel used and efficiency. The choice of energy source for the operation of the units depends on the capabilities and desires of consumers.
- Thermal power. A double-circuit thermogenerator must fully provide both space heating and water heating for household needs.
- Mounting type. Wall mounted boilers are compact in size, but floor options greater power range.
- Heating system. The selection of a specific model depends on the planned type of heating circuit - open or closed, as well as on the circulation of the coolant - in a natural way or forcibly.
- The material of the heat exchanger affects the life of the boiler, its efficiency and cost.
The work of the Kiturami concern is aimed at the production of heating devices for biofuels and gas. But it was diesel-fueled equipment that made this manufacturer popular.
Advantages of diesel fuel installations:
- Ease of use due to the ability to control any function using the remote control. The thermostat built into it determines the operating and temperature conditions. The operation of the boiler does not depend on the size and presence of draft, since the existing effect of turbocharging contributes to the forced direction of exhaust gases into the chimney;
- High economic efficiency is achieved through aerodynamic flow during fuel combustion;
- Possibility of self-configuration;
- Year-round hot water supply;
- The presence of a self-diagnosis system with information about the operation and malfunctions of the system;
- Acceptable price;
- Variety of lineup.
The only negative is the type of fuel, which creates a negative environmental situation when it is burned.
Equipment characteristics
- The design, equipped with high-quality elements and blocks, is different from other brands. The heat exchanger is made of highly alloyed steel, superior in physical and technical qualities to other metals, which increases its cost, offset by high quality.
- The equipment is made of copper, which does not react with water and increases its heat resistance. The presence of internal and external control units, which contributes to the regulation and control of the operating mode of the system from various places in the boiler room.
- Coverage of the power range of floor-standing 2-loop units – from 10 to 35 kW, sufficient for heating 250-275 sq. m.
- The dependence of the actual fuel consumption on personal settings. The nozzle is selected from the manufacturer for the actual power parameters.
- heating power, fuel consumption and its combustion mode is set independently. With power parameters up to 15 kW, the expected fuel consumption is 8 liters per day, while the burner will operate at certain intervals to create optimal room temperature. By choosing the right heating mode and installing a variable temperature controller, you can significantly reduce fuel consumption.
- Boilers for gas, diesel fuel, floor or mounted on the wall are mainly equipped with a combustion chamber closed type and forced gas exhaust system. steel or ceramic chimney coaxial, so that the supply of street air flow and gas removal are carried out at the same time.
- It is possible to build a chimney with a slightly larger diameter - up to 120 mm. Reducing its size and cross section is unacceptable.
The lineup
The development of KSO models was originally carried out as gas-powered equipment. After, changing the type of burner and slightly changing the monitoring and control system, it became possible use other energy carriers. The main fuel was diesel. The turbocyclone burner contributed to 100% fuel combustion and increased efficiency. The advantages of the model are simplicity of design, ease of maintenance and low price.
Biofuel boilers models KRM-30R and KRM-70R with the changes made to their design, they use both diesel fuel and other solid fuel. The transition from one type of fuel to another is carried out quickly. System forced circulation improves the efficiency of the heater. These models differ only in power.
Model turbo 13r generates 13,000 kcal/hour of thermal energy or 15.1 kW, which is enough to heat 150 sq. m. heat costs for the preparation of hot water. With significant regular waste of boiling water, the thermal circuit power is lower.
Model turbo 17 has a thermal power parameter of 19.8 kW, sufficient to heat 180 square meters. m. To increase the limit of the upper performance threshold, nozzles on the burner are selected, which may affect fuel consumption.
Model turbo 21r with a capacity of 24.4 kW has an increased capacity of the DHW circuit. At the same time, the dimensions of the boiler remain unchanged.
Liquid fuel model turbo 30 r has a capacity of 34.9 kW, sufficient for heating 350 square meters. m. Equipped with flame-shaped burners, the fuel combustion mode is optimal. Due to the small number of nitrogen oxides, it is a highly environmentally friendly equipment.

Owner reviews
“In 2012, a Kiturami 17R boiler was purchased. Excellent purchase. He was supposed to work as an understudy for the Evan Epo-18 electric boiler, acting as the main heating system. Since an area of 150 sq. m, then the choice specifically fell on high-power equipment. In severe frosts, the main boiler cannot cope with the support of the necessary temperature regime stops working due to a voltage drop in the network. Kiturami acts as a lifeguard by providing warmth and water.” Tambov, Arkady
“The Kiturami Turbo boiler is of interest in terms of hot water due to the presence of the SHOWER function, which is capable of delivering a small amount of hot water in a short period of time.” Sochi, Marina
“Wonderful equipment. No matter how many such systems have been installed, practically no one has any complaints. The whole of Siberia is warmed by them.” Yekaterinburg, Sergey
"Already cost this equipment able to interest. Spare parts are always in stock, the panels are unified.” Moscow, Konstantin
“We have our own claims to the boilers of this company. In my opinion, they are not entirely reliable. So we had to resort to repairs twice. Automation fails." St. Petersburg, Alexander
Installation and operation rules
In the presence of power surges, it is advisable to purchase a stabilizer to ensure correct operation control and monitoring unit and safety from premature failure The boilers are equipped with tanks for storing liquid fuel. These tanks can affect the performance of the equipment. Required correct installation this container, which must be exposed on all planes.
The tank must have a pipe for draining sediments and a fix bag. The container must be periodically emptied of fuel and cleaned; it is recommended to use only purified fuel.
Before starting the equipment, diesel fuel is initially filled into the tank, which must settle for at least half an hour. Only after that the unit is started and the operating modes are adjusted.
In the presence of power surges, it is desirable to purchase a stabilizer to ensure the correct operation of the control and monitoring unit and safety from premature failure.
To keep the boiler working you need:
- Periodic mechanical cleaning.
- Continuous monitoring of equipment performance and checking of components and parts for their leakage.
Possible self-installation diesel boilers with a careful study of the schemes and recommendations of the manufacturer. However, there are many operations that require the presence of highly qualified specialists, so that later the equipment does not have to be repaired. Instructions for the exact order and principle of installation and circuit diagram installation are used to illustrate the implementation of these works.
Kiturami boilers are economical option with a long service life. The reason for the premature repair is untimely service maintenance or pouring low-quality fuel.
Error codes:
Reasons for no ignition - error code "01":
- Jamming of the screw limiting the fuel level. Need to be replaced locking element or check the blower motor;
- Injection motor failure– it will be necessary to check the performance of the motor;
- Lack of fuel supply- you will need to check its level;
- third party item in a screw gate;
- Photosensor failure- it needs to be checked for functionality.
- Diesel single-circuit and dual circuit models, the latter are more convenient, but more expensive. Choosing the first option, you need to purchase a boiler and other appliances and fixtures, but its cost will still be lower.
- It is worth paying attention to the depth of the fuel intake according to the criterion for determining the deep location of the fuel and the fuel tank. According to fire safety, fuel tanks must be dug into the ground to an appropriate depth. At low power fence depth is higher.
- The cost of installing the equipment will include the price of the heater, its installation, start-up and adjustment works, maintenance and spare parts during its repair.
