Hi
I want to implement room-specific underfloor electric heating control in Home Assistant, and seek guidance on the compatible wall thermostats. The ideal thermostat has minimum built-in automation besides saftety (to reduce the price - I’m going to implement that automation) yet good wireless connectivity (ideally WiFi but Zigbee/Z-wave are ok) and tested/proven Home Assistant integration.
This is 230V/16A system and each room has a different thermostat (9 thermostats in total) controlling the respective zone. The control system would be implemented in Python on Raspberry Pi 4, based on a dynamical thermal model I have made for the house addressing individual rooms, local weather forecasts and price of electricity.
There is a local vendor vouching for HeatIt, Heatmiser and the like, which that company claims are compatible with Home Assistant over Z-wave. But the suggested devices are about 3 times more expensive than generic “smart” / “programmable” thermostats on Amazon.de , e.g.
https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Underfloor-Thermostat-Programmable-Thermostats-TGP86WIFI-EP https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Thermostat-Programmable-Thermostats-Compatible-TR9HB-WIFI-WPB/dp/B08LNS34BX?th=1 https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Thermostat-Programmable-Electric-Touchscreen-TGW60W-WIFI-EP https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Thermostat-Underfloor-Heating-Digital-Compatible/dp/B09BVT8RH4 https://www.amazon.de/-/en/KETOTEK-WiFi-Thermostat-Compatible-Programmable/dp/B0833N4ZZ3?th=1 https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Wireless-Thermostat-Temperature-Control-Compatible/dp/B095HYP48L
Are there tested Home Assistant integrations available for these (or other) generic “smart” thermostats? If yes, then is there any reason to go for the higher-priced names?
FWIW, there are related threads, such as …
Can anyone recommend a decent electric underfloor thermostat to work with HA.?
I just got the Moes Zigbee one, and without their ‘hub’, I can’t see it to do anything.
It is just there, nothing else. Can’t even see the temp.
Yeah, I want it all like most of us out there… But seriously
I am looking to replace my HAI OmniStat 2 thermostat that has failed. Looking for an easy to integrate thermostat that Home Assistant can control. I do not have any Z-Wave or ZigBee devices. Privacy is paramount so I do not want to use Alexa of Google or anything like that to control it. I really am in a quandary and just want to reach out and see what the Home Assistant community has to say.
Oh and I am very very new to HA…
Thx
I am looking to add some electric foil type of underfloor heating to my house and I need the wall mounted controller to be able to integrate with HA.
Any suggestions from people which are using UFH and which thermostats work with HA natively?
I am testing out an underfloor heating thermostat (electric underfloor heating). The unit I’m using is a Tuya based Moes GBLWW-N. I have it connected to Tuya, and it is reporting into my Tuya iot account, as well as working from the Tuya app. In Home Assistant, it shows up using the standard Tuya integration. I can see it presented as a thermostat.
The issue is the target temp readings for the thermostat in Home Assistant. In the Tuya app, I can set the desired temperature anywhere from 5 degre…
Hi i recently purchased some underfloor heating Thermostats controlled by Tuya/Smartlife App.
I was looking for alternative to control them throw homeassitant.
My options as if i understood correct:
Is only tuya integration. Tuya currently has some issues with climates.
I ve been searching for the possibility to control them local with device id and key. I am able to do this for switches but not for climates.
I was thinking the mqtt option because i think my thermostat is esp8266. But i can…
Hi,
I live in the UK and am about to do a bunch of home renovation. This will include putting in wet underfloor heating on the ground floor (around 200 sqm of flooring across 9 rooms). I currently have a HA setup with a ZWave stick on a RPi4 which works pretty well but is not mega reliable. Occasionally I need to restart HA/zwavejs2mqtt.
Can anyone recommend a hardware setup for this? I want to be able to control the flooring remotely, turn it on and off when on holiday etc as well as being ab…
I currently have two AUBE TH232 programmable thermostats managing the underfloor heating in my bathrooms with integrated floor sensors. I’d like to replace them with something I can manage from Home Assistant which will be compatible with the existing floor sensor. Are there any recommendations please?
I’m running Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi with a Zigbee USB serial dongle and an RFXTRX422XL to control various items currently and happy to buy another dongle if appropriate.
Thanks
Donald
… but none of them seems to address this concern.
I have Mysa thermostats which integrate into HA using Apple HomeKit.
They make an in-floor heating version though it’s rather high in price.
It does have scheduling built-in but I don’t think you have to use it.
I’ve been looking for something similar, unsuccessfully. I have 5 radiant electric in-floor rooms and $200 apiece is hard to swallow.
If I find anything, I’ll post back here.
What specific concern?
I have the Sinope and it works great.
