@loyra If you are OK with the potential risk, I wonder if you could use a SwitchBot button pusher to be able to remotely push the reset.

Of course, on day i leave for vacation, spa decided to drop from network and i’m can’t make it pair again. I won’t (want?) be able to obsess over it remotely :wink: I hope it will cooperate more when i get back

Check my post Intex Pure Spa wifi control - #9 by elkropac

or better yet check the source of intex-spa python library GitHub - mathieu-mp/intex-spa: Python package for Intex Spa wifi client , it has it all

And if you are willing, please share your device info in this issue

Thanks

Thank you for your answer. I have found a way to get the information.
But: I am using in my homebridge plugin (Node JS - Typescript) the web API.
I have tried the python script (spa_current_temp.py) from Olivier_B.
How can i do this little example in Node JS?
I have tried some Node JS telnet examples without success.
Perhaps someone knows…
Thank you,
Peter

Hi @morbak, I got Intex 28450 model year 2024 and had the same issues. Even the original app “Intex Link-Spa Management” was unable to pair with the spa. By poking around I found out the spa is running on Tuya (opened port 6668). Pairing with SmartLife app was successful. Then I used “Local Tuya” integration to add the spa to Home Assistant. I guess it would work with the native HA Tuya integration as well, but I don’t want to use the cloud access…

Thank for this info! I will mention this in the documentation of the homeassistant-intex-spa integration, to help new Intex Spa owners.
Out of curiosity, how good is the management of the various features of the spa with Local Tuya?

108

Hello,
i don’t see if the integration work for this one

How can i find the compatibility list ?

109

@kaaribou: It does. I’ll move the compatibility list to the front page of the integration.

It covers all the functionality of the original app (have configured switch entities for filtration, sanitation, bubbles and climate entity for heating). The only strange thing I noticed is when I completely block the spa from accessing the Internet (but keep the local network access) using router’s firewall the spa stops sending entity updates (i.e. the filter switch remains in ON state after the filtration is stopped manually via the spa panel or when the timer expires).

111

When the firewall rules block the outbound traffic from the spa, the spa does not update its various statuses by himself. But does these status eventually update by a polling from Home Assistant?
I sadly never got the chance to learn the Local Tuya protocol, so I might not be of great help here.

112

What does your network topology look like? Which OS do the firewall, router, switches and AP run?

Some client isolation setting could lead the L2 flow (from within the LAN to somewhere in the LAN) to be routed by the L3 of the firewall, where the flow is dropped/rejected.
Or something to do with mDNS but I never dig into this.

113

Which kind of device do you slect to pair it? or did i do auto recognize it when the spa was in paring mode? Because that doesn’t seem to work for me

114

Thanks for the great integration, works much better than the cloud app. Is there a way to set the time at the same time as filtering? If I press filter, the standard time is used and then it goes off again. I then have to create an automation that switches back on after a few hours… Is that the only solution? In the Intex app you can set how many hours the filtering should take place.

115

Hi, I am sorry but it is not featured in the integration.

It might technically be possible, but we couldn’t figure out how and where to encode these parameters while sending the filtering command to the spa.

116

Can you share how you set up the climate entity? From within the Local Tuya integration, or did you use templates?
