I just installed a fresh copy of Home Assistant (HaOS 9.5) on my RPi 4, and the thermostat card is displaying the celsius value for the current temperature, even though I have Fahrenheit set as the preferred unit. I have attached a screenshot below to show the issue. The first card is to show what should be displayed, with the thermostat card following it.
I have tried changing over to celsius and then back to Fehrenheit to see if that resolves the issue, but it doesn’t. I have also gone into the terminal and issued the command
ha core restart
But the issue still persists. Any ideas as to what is going on, and how I can fix this is greatly appreciated.
I had this battle myself, with Octoprint temperature sensors specifically. In my case, the sensor was reporting a F number. For whatever reason, HA was unable to realize that, insisting it was C, then performing a second C to F conversion.
After much searching (mainly this forum) and combining bits of other postings, I came up with this YAML. Basically, it looks at the “wrong” value sensor, corrects it, and exposes it as a new sensor that I use in cards. Hope this is useful to you!
# fix stupid converted C to F twice temps
template:
- sensor:
name: "octoprint_temp_c_ambient"
unit_of_measurement: "°C"
state: "{{ (((states('sensor.octoprint_actual_ambient_temp') | float(0)) - 32) * 0.5556) | round(1)}}"
