Zusammenfassung:An air-conditioning apparatus includes: a refrigerant circuit in which a compressor, a four-way valve, a heat source-side heat exchanger, an expansion valve and a load-side heat exchanger are connected; and a controller which controls a refrigeration cycle in which refrigerant is circulated in the refrigerant circuit, to switch a flow passage for the refrigerant in accordance with which of a cooling operation, a heating operation and a defrosting operation is performed. The controller includes: a refrigeration-cycle control unit which controls the four-way valve to switch the flow passage of the refrigerant when the operation to be performed is switched from the heating operation to the defrosting operation; and a compressor control unit which sets an operation frequency of the compressor at a value lower than an operation frequency which is applied during the heating operation, when the operation is switched from the heating operation to the defrosting operation.
