Xiaomi Humidifier support

navigatortc · March 17, 2021, 9:32am

I also have a humidifier of the 2nd version (zhimi.humidifier. ca4). The standard integration does not have the water_level attribute. Although this attribute is described in the documentation.

Hey @edozat1,
I can’t help you, but maybe u can (sorry to disapoint you ).
Would you mind to share the entries you made in the config.yaml and the code you wrote in the card in you Lovelace UI?
Regards

edozat1 · May 31, 2021, 7:30pm

@Magix3D It’s been a while, but I think I took the following steps:

Start with this guide: Xiaomi Miio - Home Assistant to get a token from the mi-home app. I used BlueStacks.
Add this repository in HACS: GitHub - syssi/xiaomi_airpurifier: Xiaomi Mi Air Purifier and Xiaomi Mi Air Humidifier integration for Home Assistant
Add this to you config.yaml:

fan:
  - platform: xiaomi_miio
    name: Luchtbevochtiger
    host: !secret host_ip
    token: !secret xiaomi_humidifier_token
    model: zhimi.humidifier.ca4

Now you should have the fan entity

The card is a custom card in HACS: GitHub - artem-sedykh/mini-humidifier: Minimalistic humidifier card for Home Assistant Lovelace UI

Hope this helps

@edozat1 Thank you, and how did you manage to get the humidifier working with the custom card?
My current problem is, that I add the entities one for one to my config.yaml like this:

fan:
  # Antibacterial Humidifier
  - platform: xiaomi_miio_airpurifier
    name: Antibacterial Humidifier
    host: secretip
    token: secrettoken
    model: deerma.humidifier.jsq

switch:
  # Antibacterial Humidifier
  platform: template
  switches:
    airhumidifier_temperature_buzzer:
      friendly_name: Air Humidifier Buzzer
      value_template: "{{ is_state_attr('fan.antibacterial_humidifier', 'buzzer', True) }}"
      turn_on:
        service: xiaomi_miio_airpurifier.fan_set_buzzer_on
        data:
          entity_id: fan.antibacterial_humidifier
      turn_off:
        service: antibacterial_humidifier.fan_set_buzzer_off
        data:
          entity_id: fan.antibacterial_humidifier
      icon_template: mdi:volume-high

sensor:
  platform: template
  sensors:
    airhumidifier_temperature:
      friendly_name: Air Humidifier Temperature
      value_template: '{{ states.fan.antibacterial_humidifier.attributes.temperature }}'
      unit_of_measurement: '°C'
    airhumidifier_humidity:
      friendly_name: Air Humidifier Humidity
      value_template: '{{ states.fan.antibacterial_humidifier.attributes.humidity }}'
      unit_of_measurement: '%'
      icon_template: mdi:water-percent
    airhumidifier_buzzery:
      friendly_name: Air Humidifier Sound
      value_template: '{{ states.fan.antibacterial_humidifier.attributes.humidity }}'
      unit_of_measurement: '%'
      icon_template: mdi:water-percent
    airhumidifier_water_tank_detached:
      friendly_name: Air Humidifier Water Tank
      value_template: '{{ states.fan.antibacterial_humidifier.attributes.water_tank_detached }}'
      unit_of_measurement: '%'
      icon_template: mdi:water-boiler

The custom card doesn’t recognise anything though.

I can add these entities manually to my UI and they work, but not with the card.

@Magix3D Right, step 5 is missing…

When you’ve added the custom card in HACS, you can add a manual card with the following config:

type: 'custom:mini-humidifier'
entity: fan.friendlyname

Magix3D · June 3, 2021, 12:21am

@edozat1 That’s it - thank you very much

Magix3D · June 28, 2021, 2:09pm

Hey @syssi,
since you apparently know a few things (:P) - do you happen to know what @edozat1 and me can do about the issue, that the water level isn’t showing in the mini-humidifier-card?
Regards

syssi · June 28, 2021, 2:27pm

@Magix3D Please contact the author of the custom card and ask for deerma.humidifier.jsq support. It looks like the custom card doesn’t support all versions out of the box:

Magix3D · June 28, 2021, 3:22pm

Good idead - I’ll do that - thank you

hass-xiaomi-miot maybe supports it without yaml.

hey folks got mine humidifier today, is anybody out there who got it working in different subnets/VLANs? I already saw that this might cause in errors, but that there are a few of ppl got it working.

fan:
platform: xiaomi_miio_airpurifier
name: Luftbefeuchter
host: 192.168.180.31
token: XXXXXXXXX
model: deerma.humidifier.jsq

I ran into error below:

logger: custom_components.xiaomi_miio_airpurifier.fan
Source: custom_components/xiaomi_miio_airpurifier/fan.py:1664

raspbender · August 16, 2021, 7:15pm

I just did it yesterday for the deerma.humidifier.jsq, it works with this HACS integration (cloud): hass-xiaomi-miot/README.md at master · al-one/hass-xiaomi-miot · GitHub
Aside from the device itself, the entities exposed are:

Humidity Sensor
Temperature Sensor
Light (its LED)

You can turn it on/off and set a target humidity.

I was a bit disappointed that there is no water tank level, not sure if it’s a limitation of the hardware or of the integration, but it’s missing also from the app.

If anyone knows how to bypass the cloud account and go for local control only, I’m all ears.

EDIT: HA and the Humidifier are on separate VLANs

Rockstad · August 26, 2021, 9:07am

Did you find a solution?

I get the same error in the logs and the fan shows as unavailable in Developer Tools.
Only difference is I run everything on the same routher with no subnet’s.

Brad_Ford · August 26, 2021, 1:50pm

Water tank is added in the next HA release

dave-castle · August 27, 2021, 6:18am

No solution for different vlans, I brought it to the same vlan as the HA server

Bieniu · August 30, 2021, 3:46pm

This model will be supported by the core integration after 2021.9 release Xiaomi Miio - Home Assistant

Rockstad · September 6, 2021, 2:31pm

My deerma.humidifier.jsq is realy unreliable (see screenshot). I have tested it with both syssi’s xiaomi_airpurifier custom component and the Xiaomi Miio core integration.
When it works, it work well and I can’t say one integration is different from the other on this matter. Also there’s no problem in Mi Home app.

Home assistant log:

2021-09-06 15:09:35 WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.config_entries] Config entry 'Mi Smart Antibacterial Humidifier' for xiaomi_miio integration not ready yet: Unable to discover the device 192.168.1.125; Retrying in background

TheMystery · November 25, 2021, 1:52pm

I’m trying to add an Xiaomi mi antibacterial humidifier, it should be supported it’s an deerma.humidifier.jsq5.
This is my config:

fan:
  - platform: xiaomi_miio_airpurifier
    name: Humidifier Office
    host: ip_address
    token: token
    model: deerma.humidifier.jsq5

But in de logging i am getting this error:
Got exception while fetching the state: Unable to discover the device ip_address

With extra debug logging on i get no extra messages.
What can be the problem?
I’m using this integration with hacs:

Noorbertt · March 3, 2022, 4:21pm

same,

Any news with deerma.humidifier.jsq5 support?

TheMystery · March 3, 2022, 7:39pm

I have it working with the hacs integration Xiaomi Miot Auto.
Extracten the key with the extractor tool and added it local.
