Zehnder ComfoPipe Plus Ventilation System – The Perfect Blend of Efficiency and Easy Installation

The ComfoPipe Plus DN160 coupling is a key component of the Zehnder mechanical ventilation system, designed for efficient and energy-saving air distribution in buildings. Made from lightweight, vapor-tight EPP (Expanded Polypropylene), the coupling provides excellent thermal insulation while simplifying and accelerating the installation process. Its design enables leak-tight connections without the need for additional sealants or adhesives.

This coupling is intended for connecting air ducts with a 160 mm diameter. Its dimensions (outer diameter 286 mm, inner diameter 160 mm) ensure full compatibility with other ComfoPipe Plus system components. This allows installers to quickly and efficiently build complex ventilation networks, minimizing energy losses and ensuring optimal indoor climate comfort.

Design and Properties

The ComfoPipe Plus coupling features a thoughtfully engineered design that combines functionality and durability. The material used – EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) – is a lightweight yet robust synthetic material with outstanding thermal insulation properties (thermal conductivity coefficient: 0.042 W/mK). EPP is also vapor-tight, preventing moisture condensation inside ventilation ducts and protecting against mold and fungal growth.

• Easy installation: Self-supporting elements and push-fit connections significantly simplify installation, reducing labor time and costs.
• Airtightness: Three-stage connection ensures complete sealing, eliminating the risk of leaks and energy loss.
• Thermal insulation: 15 mm insulation thickness minimizes heat loss in winter and prevents duct overheating in summer.
• Lightweight: Low material weight facilitates transport and installation, especially in hard-to-reach areas.
• Vapor-tight: Prevents moisture condensation and microbial growth.
• Durability: EPP material is resistant to mechanical damage and corrosion, ensuring long system lifespan.

Applications and Compliance with Standards

The ComfoPipe Plus coupling is designed for use in mechanical ventilation systems with heat recovery (recuperation), suitable for both residential and commercial buildings. It is ideal for distributing fresh air to rooms and extracting used air. It meets the insulation requirements for air ducts according to DIN 1946-6, confirming its high quality and energy efficiency. It can be operated in temperature ranges from -25°C to +80°C and has a fire classification of B2. It ensures optimal heat recovery system performance by minimizing energy losses during air transport.
