Abstract

The present invention relates to an air conditioning system for a vehicle in which an air-conditioning module having an air-conditioning case and a blower unit is disposed at a side of an engine room relative to a dash panel, and a distribution duct having a defrost vent, a face vent, and a floor vent is disposed in the interior of a vehicle relative to the dash panel so as to distribute cold air and hot air discharged from the air-conditioning case into the interior of the vehicle, wherein the floor vent is placed on one side of an area, in which a relatively large amount of hot air flows, in a mixing chamber of the distribution duct where cold air and hot air are mixed, i.e. a side adjacent to the dash panel.
