Abstract
An air-conditioning apparatus capable of achieving enhancement of the system COP while suppressing product cost. The air-conditioning apparatus controls the difference between the temperatures of brine at a position before and at a position after an indoor heat exchanger or at a position before and at a position after an intermediate heat exchanger to be a preset target value and to be larger at the time of a heating operation than at the time of a cooling operation.
