Climate Group Helper

Beta 1.0.0-rc of the custom component climate group is already available and for me, it solves the problem. People on GitHub already discussing it.

I can’t commit to mantain a repo, but there are a pair of forks with the changes needed for 2024.1.0

There are some forks on GIT hub solving the problem with 2024.1. IMHO it would be a good idea to put them together in a main stream.

The best way would be integrating ‘climate groups’ in HASS directly as requested by https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/77737, but @daenny stopped workinb on this. Thanks to @deanny for this addon, which seems to be a good base!
May be one of the authors of the working forks can do the job - I would appreciate it.

This apparently no longer works properly (HA-Ver.2024.06.02). The temperature settings do not work properly, the thermostats are not synchronized (Z2M - thermostats from Nedis, which can be integrated and controlled individually very well…)
There is nothing useful or understandable to be found as to how this could be done - one room, several radiators, all synchronized settings - what is so exotic about it is incomprehensible…why can’t you group thermostat valves in such a way that it is easy to do even for people without a doctorate in rocket science…

Hi @heangel

You should be able to get it to work with this fork (available in HACS)

Thanks @carlhye … I’ll try it - in the meantime I did changings in the “original” as described in Climate Group Helper - #17 by TX9G9qBxid from erpayo - the temperature can now be controlled for the group from one thermostat card for the whole group…

There is still no “official” way (without Hacs) of doing it right? Or did I miss something?

No, not to my knowledge…
