Abstract

An air conditioning installation wherein longitudinal partitions (10, 11) run through by the heating radiator (5) define inside an air treatment housing (1) a median air volume (16) emerging through an outlet (40) connected to a rear zone of the vehicle passenger compartment and two lateral volumes (12, 14) emerging through outlets (27a, 27) connected to the front zone of the passenger compartment. Thus, it is possible to adjust independently air temperature in the front and rear zones, with a more compact housing at economical production costs.
