Abstract (en)

An air conditioner (100) is equipped with a single outdoor unit (3), multiple indoor unit bodies (18a, 18b) to which humidified air is supplied from the outdoor unit (3), a communication unit (67) that can receive a supply instruction from a user to supply humidified air to the indoor unit bodies (18a, 18b), and a humidifying operation control unit (62) that controls the outdoor unit (3) such that humidified air is supplied only to any one of the indoor unit bodies (18a, 18b). The humidifying operation control unit (62) performs first prioritized supply unit switching control that controls the outdoor unit (3) such that humidified air is supplied to a first supply unit that is an indoor unit body for which the communication unit (67) has first received the supply instruction, non-prioritized supply unit switching control that controls the outdoor unit (3) such that, in a case where the communication unit (67) receives the supply instruction with respect to a second supply unit that is the indoor unit body other than the first supply unit and a first condition is being met, humidified air is supplied to the second supply unit, and second prioritized supply unit switching control that controls the outdoor unit (3) such that, in a case where a second condition is being met, humidified air is supplied to the first supply unit.
