An intake structure (1a) for an air-conditioning system (100). The intake structure (1) comprises a case (10), a first door (20a), a second door (30a) and an airflow regulator (40). The case (10) defines a mixing chamber (11) comprising a first inlet aperture (12), a second inlet aperture (13), a third inlet aperture (14), and an outlet aperture (15). The first door (20a) is configured to prevent airflow through the first inlet aperture (12) in a first inlet aperture closed position and allow airflow through the first inlet aperture (12) and prevent airflow through the mixing chamber from the third inlet aperture (14) to the first inlet aperture (12) in a first inlet aperture open position. The second door (30a) is configured to prevent airflow through the second inlet aperture (13) and allow airflow through the third inlet aperture (14) in a second inlet aperture closed position and allow airflow through the second inlet aperture (13) and prevent airflow through the third inlet aperture (14) in a third inlet aperture closed position. The airflow regulator selectively regulates a flow rate of airflow through the third inlet aperture (14) when the second door (20a) is in the second inlet aperture closed position.
