Abstract
An air-conditioning apparatus for a vehicle and a control method of the same are provided which may inhibit a closing degree of a door from being insufficient even when the door is closed while a blower fan is actuated. An air-conditioning apparatus for a vehicle includes an inside-outside air switching damper including a damper switching actuator, a blower fan, a control unit, and door opening-and-closing sensors. In a case where the door becomes an open state and a case where the blower fan is actuated and the inside-outside air switching damper is in an outside air introduction mode, the control unit issues a command to the damper switching actuator to switch the inside-outside air switching damper to an inside air circulation mode.
