Abstract
An air conditioner includes: an indoor unit; an outdoor unit; and a control unit that controls operation of the indoor unit and the outdoor unit. The outdoor unit includes: an outdoor unit fan that takes in air; an outside air temperature detection unit that detects an outside air temperature that is a temperature of outside air; and an air pressure acquisition unit that acquires an air pressure of outside air. The control unit calculates an air property value of air at an installation location of the air conditioner based on an outside air temperature acquired by the outside air temperature detection unit and an air pressure acquired by the air pressure acquisition unit, and controls the outdoor unit fan based on the air property value.
