Abstract

In an air conditioner comprising an exterior heat exchanger (2a, 2b) usable as desired one of an evaporator and a condenser, a first interior heat exchanger (6a) usable as another evaporator, a second interior heat exchanger (6b) usable as another condenser, and a compressor (1) for pressurizing the refrigerant, a valve means (3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, 5, 8a, 8b, 9a, 9b) is capable of changing a flow course of refrigerant between a cooling main course using the exterior heat exchanger as the condenser and a heating main course using the exterior heat exchanger as the evaporator.
