Turn off generic thermostat in yaml

Configuration
1

Hello,
I want to have a scene that turns off my generic thermostat but I can not figure out how to make this work. I have tried putting the code to turn off the heater in a script then turning it on from the scene.

heater_off_script:
  sequence:
    - service: climate.turn_off
      entity_id: climate.heater

This didn’t work. I also tried:

heater_off_script:
  sequence:
    - service: climate.set_operation_mode
      data:
        entity_id: climate.heater
        operation_mode: "off"

I also tried using a capital for off.

I am not sure how to go about this. Thank you.

climate:

  • platform: generic_thermostat
    name: Study
    heater: switch.study_heater

In climate component, you’ll have a heater (point to a switch), to turn it off, just turn off the switch (you can use input_boolean to create a switch)

Your second attempt should be working. However, remove the entity_id parameter from data: and place it on the same indentation level as data: and service

P.S.use non-capitalized off, and make sure you are using proper quotation marks. Some non-English keyboards input different quotation marks.

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but suggested fix didnt work for me, however with that info I managed to work it out so posting complete fix as may help someone else.

- id '16022203400000'
   alias: boiler_switch_off_daytime
   trigger:
   - at: '23:30:00'
     platform: time
   condition: []
   action:
   - data:
       entity_id: climate.heating
     service: climate.turn_off

Just check in your list of entities whet your entity_id is for your setup and replace “climate.heating” with “climate.<your_device_id>” & adjust times to your preference.
