I’m also hoping to see the Climate device included in the Verisure component. But it seems like Jamiewalters is inactive on GitHub.
I have been using the Custom Component python-verisure-climate and it has been working well (after some small adjustments by taugusti and me) until the “Climate 1.0”-change in HA 0.96. Now it’s not working because of the change from OPERATION_MODE til HVAC_MODE and maybe some other changes.
I know nothing about Python, but was able to figure out some of it in an earlier problem, but now I’m not able to fix it.
If you know how to fix it or know someone who can, this custom component will work for your Panasonic connected to Verisure in HA.
I’ve been trying to fix the Custom Component python-verisure-climate myself and I think I was able to make it work. At least it works for me now. When I started I didn’t know anything about Python and had to just look at other Climate Components to figure out how it works. It is very possible that the code is not as clean as it could be, but it works in my installation.
Hi, found this thread. i am looking into adding my Panasonic/verisure controlled heathpump to homeassistant. Is this custom component still valid? Or is it a better way to control it ?
Yes the custom component works, but is not perfect. You are able to control everyting you want with this component. But you will get som errors. The errrors occures when sending commands to the hvac as HA thinks it’s not able to update the hvac, but the hvac still gets the command. If you send several commands at once it sometimes fail to update the pump.
I think it’s related to som sync-update-problems. I haven’t really bothered looking into it.
I only use it in automations so for me its good enough. Sadly it looks like there will never be made a climate-component for the Verisure integration so this is, as I know, the only option.
No, I don’t use this anymore. I was tired of the whole Verisure integration so I desided to finally make my own control for my Panasonic Heatpump using ESPHome.
This Custom Integration has been barely kept alive the last years and the last big change was done by me having to learn Python while doing it. Sorry, but as I don’t use it I won’t be working on it anymore.
I really recommend the ESPHome way of controlling the Heatpump. It’s completely local and just works
I understand why you are not maintaining the Custom Integration when you are not using it anymore.
I am a programmer but have neither coded python, only able to read and understand it.
