# ha-smart-thermostat-control

I tried different Home Assistant add-ons and integrations, but wasn't really satisfied in controlling room temperature in our house. The heating is based on central heating and radiators with different Zigbee-based termostats.

This blueprint for HA was initially inspired by [ha-smarter-thermostat by muratcesmecioglu](https://github.com/muratcesmecioglu/ha-smarter-thermostat), but deviated through extending to also include an away calendar and a manual overwrite mode to allow manual inputs on the thermostats.

# 🌡️ Smart Thermostat Controller Blueprint
An intelligent Home Assistant automation that manages your heating based on multiple conditions for optimal comfort and energy efficiency.

## ✨ Features
🪟 Window/Door Detection
Automatically turns off heating when windows or doors are opened, preventing energy waste. Configurable delay to avoid false triggers.

## 🌤️ Weather-Based Control
Monitors outdoor temperature and disables heating when it's warm enough outside. Includes adjustable winter mode threshold and delay settings.

## 📅 Schedule-Based Temperature Control
Uses a schedule helper or calendar to set different temperatures for:

    ☀️ Day Mode - Higher comfort temperature during active hours

    🌙 Night Mode - Lower temperature for sleeping or away periods

## 🏖️ Holiday/Away Mode
Integrates with a calendar to automatically reduce heating when you're away. Smart pre-heating starts before you return home (configurable offset).

## 🔄 Multi-Thermostat Sync
Manual adjustment of any thermostat instantly syncs all others to the same temperature, giving you quick override control.

## 🎯 Priority-Based Logic

Manual adjustments (highest priority)

Windows/doors open → heating OFF

Too warm outside → heating OFF

Away mode → reduced temperature

Day/night schedule → comfort temperatures

## 🛠️ Requirements

Window/door sensor(s) (binary_sensor)
Outdoor temperature sensor
Climate entity (thermostat)
Schedule helper OR calendar for day/night timing
Calendar for away/holiday periods

## 📊 Smart Logging
All mode changes are logged to your Home Assistant logbook for easy monitoring and debugging.
