Patent ID: 8806876

Claim:
A refrigerating apparatus, comprising: a refrigerant circuit which performs a refrigeration cycle by circulating refrigerant and which includes: a heat source side circuit including a compressor and a heat source side heat exchanger and installed outdoors; and a user side circuit including a user side heat exchanger and installed indoors, the heat source side circuit and the user side circuit being connected to each other, and the heat source side heat exchanger performing heat exchange between the refrigerant and outdoor air, a heating device which heats the compressor; an outdoor air temperature detection device which detects a temperature of the outdoor air; and a control device configured to, in the operation stop of the refrigerating apparatus, determine whether a detection value of the outdoor air temperature detection device decreases, keep the heating device from heating the compressor during the time when a condition in which a detection value of the outdoor air temperature detection device decreases is satisfied, and allow the heating device to heat the compressor when the condition is not satisfied.
