[FEATURE] #130

Closed techionltd closed 1 year ago

techionltd commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Family members setting the thermostat to unattainable temperatures (eg 29c) causes heating to run constantly, wasting energy.

Describe the solution you'd like The ability to specify a maximum temperature that will override anything physically set at the thermostat.

Describe alternatives you've considered None

Additional context This graph illustrates a family member setting the temp way too high and the boiler 'topping out' at about 23c and running constantly

Wouldn't that better be handled by a Home Assistant Automation? Trigger would be if target is above 23 for X amount of time then set it back to your normal target.

Indeed. I have a couple of nodeRed automations that handle temp control. Every 60 seconds it checks and then sets the correct temp for the time of day and occupancy. I have added a button that boosts the temp for 40 mins to .5c above the current temp. Tends to keep them happy...

Don’t think this can be resolved by the integration any restrictions added in here would be overridden by the hive app or other integrations

I believe an automation would be the solution here
