ABSTRACT:
An air conditioner having a heat-source side unit including a compressor and a heat-source side heat exchanger, plural use-side units each having a use-side heat exchanger and an inter-unit pipe for connecting the heat-source side unit to the plural use-side units, including an auxiliary heat source unit having a water-refrigerant heat exchanger for heat-exchanging refrigerant with water, a refrigerant side of the water-refrigerant heat exchanger being selectively connectable to one of the high-pressure gas pipe and the low-pressure gas pile through one of a first change-over valve and a second change-over valve, and also connected to a liquid pipe through an expansion valve, and a controller for controlling the auxiliary heat source unit so that the water-refrigerant heat exchanger of the auxiliary heat source unit functions as an evaporator with a water side thereof serving as a heat source when some of the user-side units are under heating operation.
