Abstract
An air conditioning system is provided, which includes a transfer fan for transferring air to a room as a space in a house from an air-conditioned room, a motion sensor for detecting whether the room is occupied or unoccupied and an air conditioning system controller for controlling the transfer fan. In the air conditioning system, a target air conditioning environment obtaining section obtains at least a target air conditioning environment of the room, an occupied-room air conditioning environment section controls the transfer fan that transfers air to the occupied room to approximate the occupied room to the target air conditioning environment according to information from the motion sensor and an unoccupied-room air conditioning environment section controls the transfer fan that transfers air to the unoccupied room to approximate the unoccupied room to a quasi-target air conditioning environment where an energy burden is lower than that of the occupied room according to information from the motion sensor.
