PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an air conditioner of which power consumption to activate an open/close means is small. SOLUTION: An indoor heat exchanger is structured with a first indoor heat exchanger (not illustrated) and a second indoor heat exchanger (not illustrated) serially connected to the first indoor heat exchanger via a diaphragm means (not illustrated). A bypass route (not illustrated), parallely connected to the diaphragm means 5, having the open/close means of an always-open type. When starting a re-heat-dehumidifying operation which operates the first indoor heat exchanger as a condenser and operates the second heat exchanger as an evaporator, electric power is supplied to the open/close means to close and, after electric power supply is stopped, high refrigerant pressure is applied to a valve element 17a and a status in which a valve seat 19 is closed by the valve element 17a is maintained.
