Bug: Turning off the "mode" on climate entity should not turn off the "preset"

[marlomgirardi]

Turning the preset off turns off the boiler completely.

The preset is: Off, Summer, Winter

• Off: completely turns off the boiler.
• Summer: Just the water heater is enabled.
• Winter, Water heater, and climate are enabled.

When in the climate entity If I turn the mode off (should only disable the climate). It also turns off the preset, which should still be in Winter mode as it also runs the defrost when needed.

To prevent that I need to either, set it to Summer preset so it disables the climate, or a target temperature lower than the current.

I don't work with Python but if you point me in the right direction I can give it a try and see if I can fix it 🙌

hi @marlomgirardi I'm interested in your reported issue. Could you please try to explain me in an easy way what do you expect from climate entity? Try to make me an example so I can try to figure out the issue and try to solve it. Thanks. (every screenshot and example is welcome)

Hi, I have the same issue.

@marlomgirardi the thing is, when you select de off preset the boiler turn off completely, probably this preset is correct. We need a preset to deactivate the climate and maintain the boiler on in winter mode to have water heater and defrost function. Using the Ariston app you can do it deactivating the Zone, this turn off the climate and maintain the boiler on.

Thanks in advance.

@robertomontinaro80 it is clear? do you need some more info?

I suppose that everything is clear. You would like to have another preset mode where you can maintain he boiler in winter mode. I need to understand how to deactivate the climate but I need time to study the code and understand how to achieve the objective. Do you have a screenshot of the app where you deactivate the climate? So I can understand better the use case you are looking for in the integration? Thabks

thanks for your answer. I attach some screen shots from Ariston app. Sorry because the screen shots are in Spanish. this screen shot is with climate on

in this screen we deactivate the climate

the climate is off

Let's see what happens in home assistant if I deactivate the climate in Ariston app the climate entity in home assistant has this status Mode switch off and preset winter.

In the other hand if I switch off the Mode in HA, automatically the preset off is selected and is not possible to put preset winter and mode switch off
