Environmental Control Automation

Import the Blueprint in your Home-Assistent Installation:

What This Blueprint Does:

This blueprint automatically adjusts your lights based on certain environmental conditions in your home. It keeps an eye on things like the temperature, humidity, and the levels of CO2, formaldehyde, and VOCs (pollutants in the air). Here’s how it works:

  1. Monitors Sensors: It constantly checks the readings from the sensors in your home that measure the air quality and temperature.
  2. Triggers Actions: If any of the readings go outside of the safe range (e.g., if the temperature is too high, or the air quality is bad), it does the following:
  • Turns on the lights: The RGB strip and light group will turn on with a red color, signaling that something’s wrong.
  • Adjusts the brightness of other lights in your home to a moderate level.
  1. Turns Lights Off: After 10 minutes, the lights will turn off automatically, saving energy.

How It Benefits Users:

  1. Smart Environmental Control: You don’t have to worry about checking the air quality or temperature all the time. The system does it for you and responds accordingly to make your home safer and more comfortable.
  2. Automatic Alerts: If things like the temperature or air quality go out of the safe zone, the lights will change color to red, giving you a visual warning.
  3. Energy Saving: The automation automatically turns off the lights after 10 minutes, so you don’t have to manually turn them off. This helps save electricity.
  4. Simplicity: The system runs on its own without you needing to intervene. If the conditions are right, the lights adjust automatically based on what the sensors detect.

In simple terms: This blueprint makes your home smarter by automatically adjusting the lights when something in the environment goes wrong, like bad air quality or high temperatures. It saves energy and gives you a visual alert when something needs your attention.

Hello FuckingToasters,

Thanks for contributing to the community with a new Blueprint.
I have a suggestion for you. Many people who are not familiar with directory structures will have problems installing this without the Home Assistant MY tools.
Adding a MY link for this Blueprint to your top post would help them a lot.
Here is the link to make that.
Create a link – My Home Assistant

Alright, I’ve added the import link.
