The apparatus comprises a housing having a fresh air inlet duct and at least three outlet ducts for fresh or heated air. The housing has a central bulkhead which divides the housing into two separate halves, each containing a separate regulating means for regulating the temperature delivered from that half of the housing into the cabin of the vehicle. The de-icing outlet duct and/or the central fascia ventilating air outlet duct are provided with a mixer for ensuring that the temperature delivered through the corresponding outlet duct is uniform.
