Specifically, the air supply device may be a wind wheel, and the wind wheel rotates to convey air after exchanging heat with the dehumidification heat exchanger 210 and the reheat heat exchanger 220 indoors. Of course, in other embodiments, the heat cycle device may also be a water cycle device, and the dehumidification heat exchanger 210 and the reheat heat exchanger 220 send heat or cold to the indoor through the circulating water flowing in the water cycle device.
