PURPOSE:To enlarge a feed water tank, reduce the frequency of supply of water during an operation, prolong a stable operation time and contrive a reduction in the overall size of a main body of an air conditioner, by providing a separate feed water tank in the exterior of a main body of the air conditioner. CONSTITUTION:A separate feed water tank 21 is provided in the exterior of a main body 1 of an air conditioner, and one end of a feed water pipe 30 is connected to a bottom portion of a main body 26 of the tank 21. The other end of the pipe 30 is connected to a water tank 14 in a lower chamber 13 of the main body 1 of the air conditioner. When the water level in the tank 14 is lowered due to evaporation of a portion of water sprinkled on an evaporation- type condenser 2 by a sprinkler 3 during an operation of the main body 1 of the air conditioner, water is automatically supplied from the feed water tank 21 through the pipe 30. The feed water tank 21 can be made larger in size without being restricted by the size of the main body 1 of the air conditioner. Therefore, the frequency of supply of water into the feed water tank 21 can be lowered, a stable operation time can be prolonged, and a reduction in the overall size of the main body of the air conditioner can be contrived. |
