The Panasonic TZ wall-mounted split system (available across a wide range of capacities such as 2.0kW, 2.5kW, 3.5kW, 4.2 kW, 5.0kW, 6.0kW and 7.1kW) is a versatile air-conditioning solution suitable for both residential and light commercial environments. It combines strong energy efficiency, smart connectivity, and air quality features that are useful for offices, client spaces, meeting rooms, and commercial facilities. aircon.panasonic.eu

Design and Flexibility

The TZ series is known for its compact & unobtrusive indoor units (approx. 779 mm wide for most models) that blend easily into modern interiors. The system’s compact design suits small to medium-sized spaces without dominating wall space. aircon.panasonic.eu

• Indoors: Lightweight, slim profile — ideal for offices, break rooms, retail spaces

• Outdoors: Efficient outdoor compressors with R32 refrigerant

This flexibility helps businesses tailor installations to their specific space needs.

Energy Efficiency Ratings (Key Metrics)

Energy performance is critical for commercial users aiming to reduce running costs:

• SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio): Up to 7.10 A++ on certain sizes (e.g. 2.5 kW). This rating demonstrates strong cooling efficiency, helping to reduce electricity use and costs. aircon.panasonic.eu

• SCOP (Seasonal Coefficient of Performance): Often A++ or A+ across models (e.g. 4.60 A++ on smaller units). This reflects efficient heating performance in cooler conditions. aircon.panasonic.eu

• COP (Coefficient of Performance): Typical COP values range around 3.3–4.6, showing good energy performance for both cooling and heating across operating ranges. aircon.panasonic.eu

These ratings mean the TZ series performs well in both winter and summer, making it suitable for year-round business use.

Connectivity: Built-In Wi-Fi and Smart Control

One standout feature for modern business environments is the built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. Panasonic’s Comfort Cloud app allows remote control of temperature, scheduling, and performance right from a smartphone. It also offers:

• Integration with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa for voice control

• Control over multiple units from a single interface

• Custom schedules to reduce energy use during non-working hours

This smart connectivity is especially helpful for facilities managers who need centralised control across rooms or multiple locations. aircon.panasonic.eu

Air Quality with nanoe™ X Technology

Panasonic’s nanoe™ X technology is included in the TZ series and is designed to help improve indoor air quality by releasing nano-fine particles that can inhibit certain pollutants. This can contribute to a cleaner and more pleasant indoor environment — particularly useful in office reception areas, meeting rooms, or client-facing spaces. aircon.panasonic.eu

Although nanoe™ X does not replace dedicated air purification systems, it adds a layer of air hygiene that is beneficial in commercial settings.

Performance and Comfort

The TZ series offers smooth and responsive temperature control with features such as:

• Aerowings to direct airflow where needed

• Quiet operation (very low noise profiles ideal for workplaces)

• Efficient dehumidification and rapid comfort delivery

These features help maintain a comfortable environment for employees and clients alike. aircon.panasonic.eu
