Add-on: Climate

Description

This add-on enables the use of your panel's relays to act as a thermostat (either cooler or heater) using the internal temperature sensor and independent of the network availability.

Attention

  1. The NSPanel is limited to 2A per relay. Don't use it for directly power your cooler/heater if exceeding the panel specifications:
    • 150W/110V/Gang, 300W/110V/Total
    • 300W/220V/Gang, 600W/220V/Total

    Note

    More details on the Sonoff NSPanel's page and the product specifications document.

  2. A target temperature must be set on the climate entity in Home Assistant or the page Climate in your panel.

Installation

You will need to add the reference to addon_climate_heat, addon_climate_cool or addon_climate_dual files on your ESPHome settings in the package section and after the remote_package (base code), as shown bellow (for heat in this example):

Configuration

The following keys are available to be used in your substitutions:

Key Required Supported values Default Description
cooler_relay Mandatory for cool and dual 1 or 2 0 (disabled) Relay used for control the cooler. User 1 for "Relay 1" or 2 for "Relay 2".
heater_relay Mandatory for heat and dual 1 or 2 0 (disabled) Relay used for control the heater. User 1 for "Relay 1" or 2 for "Relay 2".
temp_units Optional °C or °F °C Temperature unit.
min_off_time Optional Positive integer representing the number of seconds 300 Minimum duration (in seconds) the cooling/heating action must be disengaged before it may be engaged.
min_run_time Optional Positive integer representing the number of seconds 300 Minimum duration (in seconds) the cooling/heating action must be engaged before it may be disengaged.
min_idle_time Optional Positive integer representing the number of seconds 30 Minimum duration (in seconds) the idle action must be active before calling another climate action.
target_low Optional Number representing a temperature in the selected unit 18 The initial lower treshold for the target temperature.
target_high Optional Number representing a temperature in the selected unit 24 The initial higher treshold for the target temperature.
temp_min Optional Number representing a temperature in the selected unit cool: 15
heat: 7
dual: 7
The minimum temperature the climate device can reach. Used to set the range of the frontend gauge.
temp_max Optional Number representing a temperature in the selected unit cool: 45
heat: 35
dual: 45
The maximum temperature the climate device can reach. Used to set the range of the frontend gauge.
temp_step Optional Number representing a temperature in the selected unit 0.5 The granularity with which the target temperature can be controlled.
