Quite new to energy monitoring with HA so bear with me.
Used @Troon ’s method to create a template sensor,
However, every morning there is a spike in energy which varies in amount, not sure why it’s happening as underfloor heating is completely off between midnight and say 8am.
Any ideas why this is happening? When I used the last 24hrs counter on the actual thermostat it doesn’t show this. I also track my total house energy usage and it doesn’t show, so I’m thinking it’s an issue with Warmups way of calculating the energy?
Anyways if can’t get it fixed is there a way to exclude readings say over 2.3kwh (as my floor is only 2200W) so that this spurious measurement doesn’t show.
Did you get anywhere with this? Mine is doing the same. I have two Warmup Elements in different rooms - both currently set to ‘off’. Yet at 2am, (every night) they both report an enormous spike.
They do this whether they are on or off. When they are on they also show more reasonable consumption as well as the spikes. One of mine is showing an instantaneous spike of 13.9KWh in 5 minutes between 01:55 and 02:00 each day.
