❄ Temperature Control Exhaust Fan - Inverted

@o0Scope0o

This post is moved from “Temp Control Exhaust Fan” blueprint.

I tested it again here and it is working so that is okay.

What will happen.

  1. Between 8 am and 5pm if the temp sensor goes below 17 the fan will come ON. When it rises above 22 that fan will turn OFF.
  2. If the temp is below 17 and the time crosses over 8am the fan will come ON. If the time crosses over 5pm and the fan is ON the fan will go OFF.

One thing that may be happening is you are using a device in your fan switch. Please expand down to your fan entity as there could be something going wrong here.

Hope this helps.

Yep you were correct. It was a issue with the entity, changed entity and all magically sprung into life. Thanks so much, so far working as expected. Much appreciated! Thanks for your work on this, have found your other blueprints as well, will be looking to utilise some of those soon!!

No problem your welcome. Thanks for letting us know.

Hello @Blacky
First of all many thanks to you Blueprint, it helped me a lot to switch my heating from Heat Pump to Gaz system when it is cold (I have dual heating system !).
I would like to ask you if it is possible to allow “falling and rising” value with negative values (eg I would like to have Falling Value to -2°C and Rising Value to -1°C because under -2°C the heat pump works tooo hard and it is mutch better to switch to gaz boiler here).
Many thanks to your code :slight_smile:

@kiwi35

Just simply type the value in and click save.

I’m getting errors in my HA logs when using this blueprint. Any thoughts?

Enter in a entity ID and not a device. You can expand it down using the <>. This is a link to another blueprint of mine and it shows you how to expand your device down. Click Here

Weird. It would work as a device - just randomly gave that error. Thanks

No problem always happy to help.

Hello,
I want to be able to override the blueprint and force it running for example from your bathroom blueprint.
The override is off but the fan is turned on.
When I remove the override entity the fan is turned off as it is to hot outside.

I thought with the settings below the fan should be turned on when the bypass is on and behave normal (acording to the other blueprint settings) when the bypass is off.

type or paste code herealias: Lüftung - Kühlung
description: ""
use_blueprint:
  path: Blackshome/temperature-control-exhaust-fan-inverted.yaml
  input:
    trigger_sensor: sensor.temperatur_terasse_temperatur
    entity_turn_on:
      device_id: 26f514e7a49670854ebcb3b57235522e
    rising_value: 23
    falling_value: 20
    include_bypass: bypass_enabled_turn_on
    trigger_bypass: input_boolean.luftung_override

@Xento

Have a look at this example click here. It links the toilet blueprint with the bathroom blueprint. It will be the same similar set up using this blueprint for the toilet blueprint but you will not have the restart option.

See if that works for you.

Thank you I will try it but i find it very difficult to test the settings and the automation.

Thanks Blacky,
This is way more than I needed, but I’m using it to control a box with a light globe in it to gently warm crystalized honey, and seems to be good.

@DaveWal

Very interesting. Some times the title only reflects one thing it can do. Nice one :+1:

Blacky :smiley:

Does this work well with the apollo msr-2 sensor?

It should work with any numeric state but I don’t have one so just test it out and see.

Blacky :smiley:

Hi and thank you for this blueprint. Would it be possible to include the “Auto Mode Control Entity” as well?

With it it was easy to enable / disable the automation within a dashboard.

@Monster_D

You could use the bypass for this.
