Hi everyone,
I’m relatively new to Home Assistant and could not find anything on the docs or the forum on my case.
I’m trying to create a multi-zone heating solution that consists of a thermostat, which is connected to the boiler and a Zigbee TRV + temperature sensor in each room. I managed to set up virtual thermostats for each room with binary sensors, so I know when there’s a heating demand from either of the room.
Based on heating demand, I want to turn my boiler on via a thermostat, and I can’t figure out this part yet.
I can use an automation to change the
hvac_mode
to heat
, but it won’t turn the boiler on if the current_temperature
is higher than target_temperature
. I was thinking about changing the hvac_action
attribute, but it’s not possible to do it via automations GUI and I couldn’t find if it’s possible to do it via yaml. Does it mean that playing with the target_temperature
is my only option?
Any help would be appreciated.
