The new generation of Zehnder radiant ceiling panels: ZFP for efficient heating and cooling

Heating and cooling ceiling systems

Zehnder presents an innovative radiant ceiling panel concept for modern heating and cooling requirements – Zehnder Flexible Panels, or ZFP for short. The Zehnder ZFP system combines decades of international experience in indoor climate technology with state-of-the-art production technologies. The result: Zehnder ZFP boasts a first-class finishing process, groundbreaking energy efficiency and a high degree of flexibility.

The ZFP heating/cooling panels are now available on MEPcontent. The article is highly configurable in Revit to support thousands of combinations! Separate families for the hanging system, flow- and return valves and LED luminaire are also available for download. Check out the PDF manual for details. Download now

Cost-effective and efficient – up to 40% less energy consumption
Zehnder ZFP does more than keep your building comfortably warm in winter – it also ensures pleasant temperatures in summer without causing draughts. Thanks to its sophisticated design concept, the energy is transferred extremely effectively, increasing the proportion of radiation to up to 89%. Moreover, the radiant ceiling panels can be used in combination with modern heating technology such as heat pumps to unlock additional potential savings.

An all-rounder for diverse applications

The Zehnder ZFP components can be flexibly installed in rooms with heights between 2 and 50 m. With a pipe diameter of just 15 mm and a refined design, the radiant ceiling panels blend harmoniously into any architecture.
With its modular design, Zehnder ZFP can be tailored to all kinds of different requirements. Additional features (such as ball guards, wipeable dust protector panels, heat and acoustic insulation, perforated design) make Zehnder ZFP the ideal solution for a vast array of indoor spaces. Whether they're used in sports halls or in the food industry, factories or warehouses, theatres or workshops, the radiant ceiling panels ensure ideal heating and cooling results in every area of use. An interesting fact for planners and architects: the Zehnder ZFP system is available in over 700 colours.

Rapid installation, low weight and long life cycle

Zehnder ZFP offers extremely robust components which require fewer suspension points. This saves considerable time – and, hence, money – during installation. Weighing 14 kg/m2, the radiant ceiling panels are also up to 40% lighter than conventional solutions. This means that the components can even be used for low roof loads and makes them convenient to handle. What’s more, all components are fully galvanized and corrosion-resistant for outstanding durability.

Outlook: ZFP moves with the times

Further ZFP variants will be available, components with integrated, high-quality LED lights, thermal radiation shields which increase the proportion of radiation to up to 89% as well as the option of locating cut-outs for additional installations. Watch this space.
