Abstract

A heat pump type apparatus with an air heating mode which heats a whole space using an internal heat-exchanger, a floor heating mode which heats the floor around the space using a floor heating panel, and a combined use of both type heating. In the combined use mode, the apparatus compensates the desired preset room temperature by a specified value in response to the results of a comparison of an actual floor temperature and a desired preset floor temperature.
