Abstract
Disclosed is an air conditioning system that comprises a sterilization/deodorization gas supply device wherein a sterilization/deodorization gas supply unit, which includes a chemical container and an evaporation acceleration unit, for accelerating the evaporation of a chemical stored in a container, is located along an air channel extending from an air inlet to a heat exchanger. An appropriate amount of a sterilization/deodorization gas is mixed with cooled or heated air that is discharged from the air conditioning system, so that the generation of bad odors, which are generated by mold and microorganisms, and the growth and dispersion of bacteria can be suppressed.
