Honeywell Evohome as a sensor

Configuration
1

Hey,
I have the Honeywell Evohome set up and I’d like to use the internal temperature sensors it has.

Is that somehow possible?

Thanks,
M.

Add this to your configuration.yaml file:

climate:
  - platform: honeywell
    username: YOUR_USERNAME
    password: YOUR_PASSWORD

Additional info can be found here: https://www.home-assistant.io/components/climate.honeywell/

yes, that’s already set up for the general configuration of the component.

I want to be able to set sensors (i.e temperature_for_room1) so I could “react” on it (i.e start AC if it’s too warm)

Once you add that to your configuration the sensors available should be automatically added to Home Assistant. Check the States page in developer tools for the sensors that are available. If there aren’t any check the error log to see if the component was added correctly.

You’re right, I do have:

add something like this to your configuration.yaml (or even better, put sensor: !include sensors.yaml into your configuration.yaml and create a sensors.yam with something like this)

- platform: template
  sensors:
    woonkamer_current_temperatuur:
      value_template: '{{ states.climate.woonkamer.attributes["current_temperature"] | replace(" c", "") | float }}'
      unit_of_measurement: '°C'
      friendly_name: "Woonkamer temperatuur"
    keuken_current_temperatuur:
      value_template: '{{ states.climate.keuken.attributes["current_temperature"] | replace(" c", "") | float }}'
      unit_of_measurement: '°C'
      friendly_name: "Keuken temperatuur"
    badkamer_current_temperatuur:
      value_template: '{{ states.climate.badkamer.attributes["current_temperature"] | replace(" c", "") | float }}'
      unit_of_measurement: '°C'
      friendly_name: "Badkamer temperatuur"
