Window detection off delay #593

Closed Stratagm closed 1 month ago

Stratagm commented 1 month ago

Window detection currently has an "open delay" that nicely prevents heating being turned off because of short openings.

There is however no option to disable heating for xx seconds after window is closed again. This is relevant because many buildings and even heating systems have a large thermal mass that will quickly heat the room up again, without needing the burst of heat, that would otherwise be applied when heating resumes immediately after window closing.

Hello @Stratagm ,

It was already claimed for but refused due to the very small gain it will gives vs another parameter to deal with.

Despite this, thank you for your suggestion.
