Hello, I have a Carrier Infinity HVAC system currently integrated with Home Assistant via an Infinitude proxy. I am interested in setting the thermostat’s ‘Current Temperature’ from an Average Sensor I have created (consisting of 3 Aquara Zigbee temp sensors scattered throughout the heat zone). Are there any straight-forward methods to do this and still maintain some thermostat functionality?
It depends - if there is a switch to turn the heating on and off - then just use a generic thermostat.
This is mine:
