As for these three extra features, they were working for me from the remote ir control, but if I remember correctly, not from MELCloud, so I don’t think they can be added via ESPHome.
I wanted to investigate these points, but unfortunately, I didn’t have time. Maybe I will in the future, but I’m not sure.
The “Air Purifier” mode should correspond to the “Plasma Quad Plus Filter.”
Regarding the modes, I had only set:
mode: ["COOL", "HEAT", "FAN_ONLY"],
but they should actually be:
mode: ["COOL", "HEAT", "FAN_ONLY", "DRY", "HEAT_COOL"].
“HEAT_COOL” should correspond to the “AUTOMATIC” mode.
As for the fan speeds, the names are a bit misleading, but they should be:
Auto, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
["AUTO", "DIFFUSE", "LOW", "MEDIUM", "MIDDLE", "HIGH"]
in that order.
For the temperature sensor, I managed to connect a remote sensor provided by Home Assistant.
I’m attaching my ESPHome configuration file. Unfortunately, I can’t help you with integrating a remote MQTT sensor.
I still hope this has been helpful to you.
