Integration with electric heat boiler

Third party integrations
1

Hi guys, i have a Tenko heat electric heat boiler in my house, it has wifi support with its own app
I wonder if i can add it to home assistant, they have an open api with list of commands here using curl

https://my.tenko.ua/api/#apiv1maintain_min_temp5

Im not the best programmer so maybe someone could help me to do that?

Hi, are you from Ukraine? I have the same boiler ) But i’m noob in coding(
How i understand we have to write some script that gets authorization token from tenko server, and with that token then we could read and write(change) parameters…

Hello, yeah im from Ukraine
And yeah, in two words you said the thing that we should do, but im no coder, guess you are not also.
If we could find someone to write the integration to HA, im in to back him up for some money!

Hi guys! I’m on the way to buy this water heater. I’m wondered it has Api. Let’s implement some simple interface to interfere with heater using HA default controls.

I’ve found in HA docs “Available services”:
water_heater.set_temperature ,
water_heater.turn_away_mode_on ,
water_heater.turn_away_mode_off ,
water_heater.set_operation_mode

What do you think, will it be enough for our needs? And, if you have some requirements, please share with me (us). Thanks!

Hello, it would be great if you could release official integration to HA

+1 for integration

Hi, Can you explain, how I can manage Tenko boiler with external temperature sensor? What model of electrical boiler should I buy for it?

9

Any model with wifi will work online and with Tenko app
It would be great if developers could make mqtt integration
Or make full HA integration
It would cost 200$ for them to hirr a coder and they could write on their sale screens and websites mqtt, homeassisyant smart home etc
Big profit!

I brainwashed and understood that in general we can use boiler without wi-fi and connect ZigBee relay to boiler’s contactor instead external temperature regulator. And manipulate with this relay through HA

So we can make cheaper boiler models smart. And we do not need any converters for HA.
The only limitation is that we can not manipulate with boilers settings remotely exept air temperature. But in my opinion it is not so important. In most caces you will tune it once and will only change air temperature you will need in your house

Well yes, and no.
You cant make the boiler to run at night on night tariff. Set the temp to 30+ so it doesnt turn off?
If you want the house to get warm quickly using radiators and warm floor and set the temp of input water to 70
And normaly use 50.
You what? Go to the boiler

These are little tasks, and if you think you will get a few more that could be solved by a normal integration

By the way, it has a normal api with their wifi controller. Just a good coder is needed!

For heating floors, you will never use even 50 degrees.
I think that variant with setting higher air temperature for night is quite good

13

Sure, all heat floors have reducing valves that set the temp to 30-40 degree
If you have radiators you should go on 60-70 then
And a little but of heat will be drained by heat floors

Zigbee relay is not so techy way to correspond with a boiler

I was able to integrate with Tenko using existing means:

For example sensor definition for Water Feed temperature and Delta:

- scan_interval: 60
  headers:
    Authorization: !secret tenko_secret
  resource: https://my.tenko.ua/api/v1.2/smart/full_data
  sensor:
    - name: "tenko_settings_water_feed"
      unique_id: "tenko_settings_water_feed"
      value_template: "{{ value_json.settings.WF.temp }}"
      device_class: temperature
      unit_of_measurement: C
    - name: "tenko_settings_water_feed_delta"
      unique_id: "tenko_settings_water_feed_delta"
      value_template: "{{ value_json.settings.WF.delta }}"
      device_class: temperature
      unit_of_measurement: C

So far I’ve tried basic functionality. The result looks like this:

Hi, I’m trying to get one of these heater, but cannot find a detailed description of all products. Can you please point me to such a description? thx

hi @yplys
I know, this is a small chanse you will see this message, but still I hope it works.

Could you share more details, how you managed to get data from Tenko.
I have a heater with the WIFI setup, but cannot get any data from it.
If you dont want to share this public, please send me personal mail to [email protected]

Гарного дня!
Дякую.
