The compressed refrigerant discharged from the compressor (31) flows into the first heat exchanger body (21) and the second heat exchanger body (23). In the first heat exchanger body (21) and the second heat exchanger body (23), the outside air of the casing (11) is air heat exchangers (22, 23) constituting the heat exchanger bodies (21, 23). When passing through 22, 24, 24), the heat of the refrigerant is radiated to the air to heat the air taken into the casing (11).

That is, each side part of the casing (11) is composed of a single air heat exchanger (25, 26). Each of the air heat exchangers (25, 26) has a top portion (20a, 20a) formed by bending one air heat exchanger formed in a flat plate shape at the center. In addition, you may make it form the air heat exchanger (25, 26) which concerns on this embodiment only about the surface which an adjacent casing (11, 11) opposes. Other configurations, operations, and effects are the same as those in the first embodiment.
