Abstract
A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a refrigeration cycle in which refrigerant circulates, the refrigeration cycle including a compressor, an outdoor heat exchanger, expansion valves, and indoor heat exchangers, which are connected to each other via a refrigerant pipe, a heat source unit accommodating the outdoor heat exchanger, use-side units accommodating the indoor heat exchangers, and a control unit that controls at least turning on and off of the refrigeration cycle. The control unit detects abnormality of the refrigeration cycle based on the pressure or temperature of the refrigeration cycle in an off time of the refrigeration cycle.
