Abstract
An air-conditioning apparatus having a refrigerant circuit, in which a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, an expansion device, and an indoor heat exchanger are connected by a pipe and refrigerant circulates in the pipe, includes an indoor fan configured to supply an indoor air to the indoor heat exchanger, and a controller configured to control the compressor and the indoor fan. The controller is configured to run the compressor at a start of a cooling operation, start running the indoor fan at less than a set minimum wind velocity after a first set time has elapsed since the compressor started operating, run the indoor fan at the set minimum wind velocity after a second set time has elapsed since the indoor fan started operating at less than the set minimum wind velocity, and run the indoor fan at a set wind velocity after a third set time has elapsed since the indoor fan started operating at the set minimum wind velocity.
