This custom component for Home Assistant will add crucial features to your climate-controlling TRV (Thermostatic Radiator Valves) to save you the work of creating automations to make it smart. It combines a room-temperature sensor, window/door sensors, weather forecasts, or an ambient temperature probe to decide when it should call for heat and automatically calibrate your TRVs to fix the imprecise measurements taken in the radiator's vicinity.

Integrate External "Room Thermostats" #1320

Open ennoxthealien opened 8 months ago

ennoxthealien commented 8 months ago

What is the feature?

Allow the integration of room thermostats

Description

e.g. integrating the Bosch room thermostat 2. It presents itself as a thermostatic valve to the climate entity. In order for setting the temperature to work, it would have to be set by the "card" and not by the integration. The logic should therefore be parallel to the UI card.

UI Card || BTH-RM --> BT Integration --> thermostatic valve

Possibly via information in the config under the name of the payloads of the Zigbee entity that the room thermostat "X"

Like Features: Display of Window(s) "Open" or when supported by the Device like "Manual" , "OFF" etc.

Can you clarify where this valve entity should be? How are your thermostats integrated? Using ZHA, Z2M, Bosch Controller, .... ? I cannot find any references for valves on BTH-RM devices. In the given Z2M Link there is no valve information present?
