A fan II 4 is arranged in the left air chamber. A mutual valve 2 is arranged on the transverse partition 11 on the right side of the heat pipe heat exchanger 9 to penetrate the left and right air chambers.

[0026] The air valve III 13, the air valve I 14, the indoor air supply valve 16 and the indoor return air valve 17 are opened, the air valve IV 12, the air valve II 15 and the intercommunication valve 2 are closed, and the air flow direction is as shown in the figure.
