A controller and indoor unit introducing outdoor air and/or return air from an air conditioning control target, and discharging introduced air to the air conditioning control target as supply air. The indoor unit includes a first space including an outdoor air introducing unit introducing outdoor air, a cooler, and a second space including a return air introducing unit introducing return air from the air conditioning control target. The controller, after determining air conditioning control on the air conditioning control target is necessary, introduces the outdoor air to the first space through the outdoor air introducing unit, subjecting such to cooling by the cooler and/or dehumidification to result in processed outdoor air, and introduces the return air to the second space through the return air introducing unit, where the processed outdoor air is mixed with the return air and supplied to the air conditioning control target as the supply air.
