Abstract
An indoor unit of an air conditioner includes a guide member provided below an air discharge port of a blower fan and upstream of the heat exchanger. The guide member has a guide portion disposed to face an end surface upstream of the heat exchanger, and the guide portion is a plate body whose cross-section has a linear shape parallel to the end surface when cut along a plane including a rotation axis of the blower fan. Thus, provided is the indoor unit of the air conditioner capable of more uniformly guiding air from the blower fan in a height direction of the heat exchanger by the compact and inexpensive guide member.
