Air conditioning apparatus

Abstract

An air conditioning apparatus is equipped with an indoor fan, an indoor heat exchanger, and a control unit. The indoor heat exchanger generates conditioned air by exchanging heat between refrigerant and room air. The control unit sets operating modes. The control unit controls the rotational speed of the indoor fan. More specifically, in a case where the operating mode has been switched from one to the other of a normal heating mode and a hot air mode in which the conditioned air higher in temperature than in the normal heating mode is generated, the control unit lowers the rotational speed at a second rate that is slower than a first rate which is a rate of decrease in the rotational speed in a case where the operating mode is set to the normal heating mode.
