    (54) Air conditioner for attic or the like


    (57) Air conditioner for installation in an attic, requiring reduced installation space. An expandable/contractible duct (6) shaped into a sector in its longitudinal section is mounted to a body casing (3). The inside of the duct (6) is previously divided into suction and blowoff sides by a partitioning wall (7). Making use of the expansion and contraction characteristic of the duct (6), that is, widening or closing the sector-shaped duct (6) will allow the air conditioner to be installed correspondingly to how the roof is slanted.
