(3) In the conventional heat pump system in which heat is absorbed from outside air during the heating operation, the heating capacity is affected by the outside temperature, and there is a problem that sufficient heating capacity cannot be obtained particularly at low outside temperature. However, according to the present invention, since the heat is absorbed from the engine cooling water (hot water), a stable heating capacity can be obtained without being greatly affected by the outside air temperature.

(4) In the conventional heat pump system, dehumidifying and heating could not be performed because a heat exchanger for dehumidifying was not provided.
However, according to the present invention, since a device configuration having a heat exchanger for dehumidification can be established, dehumidification heating can be performed.
