PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerator having an enhanced cycle efficiency and consuming less power. SOLUTION: A refrigeration cycle comprises a compressor 1, a discharge pipe 2, a condenser 3, a drier 4, a decompressing means 5, an evaporator 6, a gas-liquid separator 7 and a suction pipe 8 sequentially connected in order. The condenser 3 is provided with a selector valve 9 and two pipelines 21 and 22, are connected to the selector valve 9. The pipeline 21 is brought into contact with the gas liquid separator in a heat changeable state and then is connected with the drier 4, and on the other hand the pipeline 22 is connected to the drier 4 directly. Part of the condenser may be used as parts of the pipelines 21 and 22 from the selector valve 9. A path allowing heat exchange between the gas liquid separator 7 and the condenser 3 and a normal refrigeration cycle path not effecting heat exchange can be switched.
