PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an air conditioner capable of improving air distribution efficiency and heat exchanging efficiency, in particular, in a dehumidifying operation by reducing the air escaping to a living area by constantly forming effective circulation flow regardless of the quantity of circulated air. SOLUTION: An indoor heat exchanger 9 composed of a first heat exchanger portion U and a second heat exchanger portion D communicated through a dehumidifying valve 10, and an indoor air blower 12 are stored inside of an indoor unit body, a movable front panel 6 is openably and closeably mounted on a front suction opening, horizontal louvers 7A, 7B are mounted on an blowout opening, and a control portion 8 switches and controls a positional attitude of the front panel to a fully-closing mode for closing the front suction opening by the front panel, a fully-open mode for opening the front suction opening, and a half-open mode for forming panel outer face circulation air flow Qo to allow the blown-out heat exchange air to flow along an outer surface of the front panel to exchange the heat with the first heat exchanger portion and panel inner face circulation air flow Qi to allow the blown-out heat exchange air to flow along an inner surface of the front panel to exchange the heat with the second heat exchanger portion D.
