Whole-home control: preset, mode, fan/swing (if the AC supports it). Two setpoints with both TRVs + an AC; a single setpoint (heat-only or cool-only) when only one device kind is configured.
sensor.*_home_average_temperature / _humidity
Home-wide aggregates.
sensor.*_home_feels_like_temperature
Humidity-adjusted apparent temperature of the home.
sensor.*_temperature_slope
Home temperature rate of change (K/min).
sensor.*_adaptive_cool_setpoint
The cool edge after the adaptive cooling-comfort shift (the heat edge never moves).
sensor.*_running_mean_outdoor_temperature
Running-mean outdoor temperature driving adaptive comfort (diagnostic).
climate.climate_orchestrator is the whole-home control surface: preset, mode,
fan/swing (if the AC supports it). Two setpoints with both TRVs + an AC; a
single setpoint (heat-only or cool-only) when only one device kind is
configured. While Comfort index targeting is on, the climate entity's
current temperature shows the feels-like value (raw dry-bulb kept in the
dry_bulb_temperature attribute).
How radiator valves are driven. target: HVAC mode + setpoint (safe). mpc: a learned model writes the valve opening. offset: corrects the TRV's own sensor so it heats to the room. mpc/offset need the TRV's valve/calibration numbers, else falls back to target.
One heat/cool edge pair per preset, each editable within 7–35 °C — behaviour in
Presets and their edges.
Only presets selected in the integration's Configure dialog are offered and get
these numbers; the manual band needs no preset.

The boost preset has no edge pair;
instead it gets two tunables (when selected):
When off, each room engages and releases on its own reading only — the home average no longer pulls borderline rooms in or holds them on. Rooms without their own area sensor still use the home average as their only reading. The averages and their sensors stay available for display/automations.
Comfort index targeting
On
Control off a humidity-adjusted feels-like (apparent) temperature rather than dry-bulb. While on, the climate entity's current temperature shows the feels-like value (raw dry-bulb kept in the dry_bulb_temperature attribute). How strongly humidity counts is set by Comfort humidity influence. Safe without humidity sensors: any room (or the home average) missing humidity falls back to plain dry-bulb.
Dew point guard
On
When a room's dew point exceeds the Dew point threshold and the AC isn't already cooling, run the AC in dry mode to dehumidify.
Window open detection
On
A window/door binary_sensor open in a device's area stops that device (after Window open delay). Auto-discovered from the area. Frost protection still overrides it.
AC ignores open windows
Off
Let coolers ignore a window open in their own room — for a portable/exhaust-hose split that needs its window open to vent. The AC still stops if a window is open in another room, and heaters always stop. Only matters when Window open detection is on.
Outdoor temperature gating
On
Suppress heating when it's mild out (≥ Heating off above outdoor temperature) and cooling when it's cool out (≤ Cooling off below outdoor temperature). Needs an outdoor sensor.
Frost protection
On
Force heat in any area below Frost protection temperature, overriding mode, preset, and window-open.
AC heating assist
Off
Allow an AC that supports heat to participate in heating (radiators own heating by default). On an AC-only setup this also turns the thermostat into a full heat/cool one.
Self-tuning AC bias
On
Auto-tune the AC cooling setpoint bias with integral feedback (grows up to Max AC cooling setpoint bias, decays when satisfied). The AC cooling setpoint bias becomes the floor.
Adaptive cooling comfort
Off
Relax the cool setpoint upward when it's hot outside (see Comfort features). Needs an outdoor sensor.
Forecast preconditioning
Off
Feed the weather entity's hourly forecast into the MPC valve optimisation so radiators pre-heat ahead of a cold spell (see Comfort features). MPC calibration mode + a weather entity only; can only raise the valve, never under-heat the present.
Automatic valve maintenance
Off
Periodically exercise the TRV valves (full open → closed) every Valve maintenance interval days. Skipped while a room is actively heating.
AC drain protection
On
Hold the AC off (no cooling, no dry-mode dehumidify) once the configured AC condensate drain / tank-full sensor has been on for the AC drain grace period; resumes when it clears. Only created when a drain sensor is configured and an AC is managed. For units with no drain line that collect condensate in a tank you empty by hand.
Event notifications
On
Raise self-clearing notifications in HA's notification panel for frost protection, a degraded status, and an AC paused for a full condensate tank. Bus events fire regardless of this switch.
How far the room must swing back toward the opposite edge before a device stops. Larger = longer runs, fewer cycles.
<area> band offset
0 °C
−5–5
Per-area comfort nudge: a positive value shifts that area's whole band up so the room runs warmer (heats sooner, cools later); negative runs it cooler. One number per managed area; biases only that area's local reading, not the home average.
Preconditioning look-ahead
2 h
0.5–8
How far ahead Forecast preconditioning plans against the weather forecast. Longer looks further out to pre-heat sooner before a cold spell.
Switching tolerance
0.3 °C
0–2
How far past the trigger edge a device drives, which is also the target (heat setpoint + tolerance, cool setpoint − tolerance, each capped at the band midpoint).
Comfort humidity influence
1.0
0–2
How strongly humidity shifts the comfort index: effective = dry-bulb + influence × (apparent − dry-bulb). 0 ignores humidity (pure dry-bulb), 1 is the full feels-like temperature, >1 amplifies it. Only matters when Comfort index targeting is on.
Dew point threshold
16 °C
10–22
Dew point above which the Dew point guard runs dry mode.
Heating off above outdoor temperature
20 °C
5–30
Outdoor cut-off above which heating is suppressed.
Cooling off below outdoor temperature
16 °C
0–25
Outdoor cut-off below which cooling is suppressed.
Frost protection temperature
7 °C
3–12
Safety floor that forces heat.
AC cooling setpoint bias
1.5 °C
0–5
How far below the real target the AC's setpoint is pushed. The floor when Self-tuning AC bias is on.
Max AC cooling setpoint bias
4 °C
0.5–8
Ceiling for the adaptive AC bias (anti-windup).
Adaptive cooling comfort max shift
2 °C
0–5
The most the cool edge may rise under adaptive cooling comfort; the curve approaches but never exceeds it.
Adaptive cooling comfort onset bias
+1 °C
−3–3
Slides the relaxation onset vs the cool edge. +1 waits until 1° hotter than the cool setpoint; −1 starts a degree earlier.
Adaptive cooling comfort response
5 °C
1–10
How gently the cool edge ramps — the degrees of outdoor excess for ~63% of the cap. Larger = gentler.
Window open delay
0 min
0–30
Grace period an open window may stay open before its area stops. 0 stops immediately. Frost protection ignores it.
AC drain grace period
30 min
0–120
How long the AC condensate drain / tank-full sensor must stay on before the AC is held off. A buffer for tank headroom or a brief blip; 0 stops the AC immediately. Only created with a drain sensor + an AC.
Valve maintenance interval
30 days
1–60
Days between automatic valve-exercise runs (when Automatic valve maintenance is on).
Sensor staleness timeout
6 h (the UI shows minutes: 360)
0–12 h (0–720 min)
Treat an area sensor that hasn't reported for longer than this as missing (falls back to the home average) and raise a repair. 0 disables the guard.
Manual override duration
60 min
0–480
How long to stand back from a device after a manual takeover is detected. 0 disables the takeover (external changes are reconciled away on the next cycle).
Note
Every commanded AC setpoint is clamped to the device's own min/max and
snapped to its step, so a large bias can never ask for a temperature the AC
won't accept.
The home-wide aggregates used as the second trigger input (primary measurements). Computed from the managed areas' sensors, or taken from your own override sensors when configured.
Home feels-like temperature
The home comfort index — apparent temperature of the home average scaled by Comfort humidity influence (equals the raw apparent temperature at the default 1.0). What Comfort index targeting judges against.
Temperature slope (K/min)
Rate the home average is rising or falling (least-squares over a trailing window).
Adaptive cool setpoint
The cool edge after the adaptive cooling-comfort shift (the heat edge never moves). Always computed, so you can preview the effect before enabling it.
idle (no model / not in MPC mode), learning (collecting samples), or ready. The learned model rides along as attributes: heating_gain (K/min at full valve), heat_loss (1/min), model_error (RMS residual of the fit, K — lower means a better-trusted model), and samples.
{device} action
The device's current action (idle / heating / cooling / drying / off / unavailable), with the last commanded mode + setpoint as attributes. During a manual takeover it also carries manual_override: true and manual_override_remaining_min.
{device} runtime
Percentage of the last hour the device was running.
{device} cycles per hour
Off→on starts per hour over the last hour — surfaces short-cycling.
{TRV} valve position
The last commanded valve opening % (in mpc mode).
Running mean outdoor temperature
The slow exponential running mean of the outdoor temperature driving adaptive comfort.
Status (diagnostic)
initializing during the post-restart warm-up, then ok, or degraded once a managed device is unavailable or no temperature source can be found. Any offline devices are listed in its unavailable_devices attribute.
Home average source
Where the home averages come from: computed (managed areas' mean), external (your override sensors), fallback (override configured but unusable — computed mean standing in), or mixed; per-reading detail and the configured sensors in its attributes.
HVAC action reason
Plain-language headline of why the home is heating/cooling/idle/paused (e.g. Heating, Frost protection, Paused — window open, Paused — manual override, Paused — AC condensate tank full), with a per-device breakdown in its attributes.
