I am trying to set up a generic_thermostat to control my central heating, I’m currently at the point where I have presets change based on time using automations, and presence detection using the following yaml
alias: "[Heating] Presence"
description: ""
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id: zone.home
to: "0"
id: empty
- platform: state
entity_id: zone.home
from: "0"
id: notempty
condition: []
action:
- if:
- condition: trigger
id: empty
then:
- service: scene.create
data:
scene_id: heating_before
snapshot_entities: climate.house
- service: climate.turn_off
data: {}
target:
entity_id: climate.house
else:
- service: scene.turn_on
data: {}
target:
entity_id: scene.heating_before
mode: single
The issue is that I have the sleep preset set to activate at 9pm, and then comfort setting to activate at 7am the following day, if the house is empty before 7am, the climate then gets changed to comfort after we leave, but then when someone returns to the house it restores the scene.heating_before and as a result also restores the preset of sleep.
How can I work around this issue?
