Hi,

Is there any way to set heating months e.g. from October to April and use this variable in another autiomations?

You could use this template:

{{ ( utcnow().month > 10 ) or ( utcnow().month < 4 ) }}

Either directly in a condition or in a template binary sensor:

- platform: template
  sensors:
    heating_month:
      friendly_name: Heating Month
      entity_id: sensor.time
      value_template: "{{ ( utcnow().month > 10 ) or ( utcnow().month < 4 )  }}"

Edit: I think order of operations requires brackets (so you dont do 10 or utcnow()month first)
