An air conditioner has an air conditioning unit for conditioning air to be
introduced into a passenger compartment. The air conditioning unit has an
air passage, an air conditioning case defining at least a part of the air
passage and a noise absorbing member having a multi-layer structure. The
noise absorbing member defines at least a part of the air passage. The
noise absorbing member has an unbreathable middle layer, a first noise
absorbing layer on an inner side of the middle layer and a second noise
absorbing layer on an outer side of the middle layer. The second noise
absorbing layer has a hardness greater than that of the first noise
absorbing layer to maintain the shape of the noise absorbing member.
Also, an air conditioner duct is formed of the multi-layer structure.
