Abstract
A refrigeration cycle device of the embodiment includes an indoor unit, a first outdoor unit and a second outdoor unit, and a control unit. The second outdoor unit includes a four-way valve. The four-way valve includes a main valve having a main valve body and a sub-valve having a sub-valve body. The main valve body is movable between a first position and a second position. The sub-valve body is driven by a solenoid and is movable between a third position and a fourth position. In case in which the first outdoor unit is operated and the second outdoor unit is stopped, when the main valve body is not at the first position, the control unit disposes the sub-valve body at the fourth position and then moves the sub-valve body to the third position.
