  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described based on drawing, specific structure is not restricted to these embodiment, It can change in the range which does not deviate from the summary of invention.

  In the above-described embodiment, the air conditioner 10 and the air purifier 30 are included as a plurality of air conditioners disposed in the same room, and the operation state of the air conditioner 10 is the temperature sensor 45 disposed in the air purifier 30. While the control is based on the detected temperature, the operation state of the air purifier 30 is controlled based on the degree of air contamination detected by the contamination sensor 25 disposed in the air conditioner 10. The plurality of air conditioners arranged in the same room may be air conditioners other than air conditioners and air purifiers, and the operating condition of the air conditioner is a temperature signal corresponding to the temperature and the degree of air contamination. It may be controlled based on a signal other than the corresponding dirt signal. Accordingly, a plurality of air conditioners arranged in the same room may include a humidifier, a dehumidifier, a ventilation fan, a heater, a deodorizer, and an electric carpet. Further, for example, a humidity sensor is disposed in a humidifier or dehumidifier disposed below one room, and a humidity signal corresponding to the humidity detected by the humidity sensor is transmitted to the air conditioner, so that the operating state of the air conditioner is However, it may be controlled based on the humidity corresponding to the humidity signal. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 8, the air-conditioning management system 101 reduces, as a plurality of air conditioners, for example, the air conditioner 10 having a function of adjusting the temperature of air in the room and the degree of air pollution in the room.

When the air flow of the blower fan 32 is set to the normal operation and the temperature distribution is made uniform and the temperature is stabilized before the gradient is established, the air flow of the blower fan 32 is returned to a weaker state than the normal operation, and the warm air near the ceiling is stirred. As such, the blower fan 32 may be controlled. In addition, when the air conditioner 10 is started to cool, the blower fan 32 is activated with the normal operation air volume simultaneously with the activation of the air conditioner 10 to generate a feeling of cool air, and when the temperature stabilizes, the cool air staying near the floor is blown upward, Uniform temperature distribution. And if temperature stabilizes, you may control the ventilation fan 32 so that it may be in the state where air volume is weaker than normal driving | running | working by draft prevention.
