An outdoor unit control unit 200 has a defrosting operation condition table 300a that defines a defrosting operation interval time Tm in accordance with a total sum of rated capacity of indoor units 5a to 5c and a refrigerant pipe length as lengths of a liquid pipe 8 and a gas pipe 9. The outdoor unit control unit 200 uses the total sum of the rated capacity of indoor units 5a to 5c input by using an installation information input unit 250 and refers to the defrosting operation condition table 300a, so as to determine the defrosting operation interval time Tm. Then, the outdoor unit control unit 200 forcibly performs a defrosting operation when the defrosting operation interval time Tm elapses without establishment of a defrosting operation start condition since the last defrosting operation is terminated.
