Hello!
I have this idea of an automation that I don’t know where to start with.
My apartment has an attic which is currently monitored with a thermometer/hygrometer. During winter I use this attic to dry laundry. During this process the value of humidity varies like this:
- average with no wet clothes: 40 - 43 %
- 1-2 hours after hanging the clothes: humidity jumps to 50 - 55 %
- while the clothes are drying the humidity slowly dropping back to normal over the course of 2 - 3 days
Now I would like to have an automation like this: - keep an 3-6 hours average of the humidity
- if the humidity spikes by 10 % over this average put binary sensor to “wet clothes”
- in the average humidity over 3-6 hours drops back to the initial average put the binary sensor to “dry clothes” and issue a notification to several Android phones, but only during the day (between 08:00 and 21:00)
Can something like this be made?
Thanks for your help!
PS: Humidity values and average length are approximate and subject to change depending on observed data.
