Integer Errors with Integers Declared

Configuration
1

I am getting these two errors looking for integers. I believe it is referring to these lines but I am not 100% sure. Ironically the code seems to work… Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

LINES

                  {% if states('counter.samuel_fan_light')|int == 1  %} on
                  {% else %} off

                  {% if states('binary_sensor.samuel_s_ceiling_fan_light_wattage') == 'off' and states('counter.samuel_fan_light')|int == 1  %} 0
                  {% elif states('binary_sensor.samuel_s_ceiling_fan_light_wattage') == 'on' and states('counter.samuel_fan_light')|int == 0 %} 1

What is none of the two conditions are true? The value will be None, which is not an integer.

I rewrote the coded to avoid this error.
