OK Dr. Hax (nprofile…2m0q), I decided to take a stab at supporting heat pumps (building off the unreleased v1.5 image). It's a beast. So many rules need updated... heating, cooling, fan, humidity, hot water, sensor/setpoint changes, all the checks and protections, the initialization routine. Those are just what I found so far, there are probably more. 😮‍💨

When I'm done, I'm going to need a lot of help testing this, and not only with heat pump systems. This will require full regression testing for HVAC and EU (aka generic) modes too.

I'd love to add support for heat pumps. Their efficency is making them a lot more popular nowadays.

There's just a lot to do. The new release candidate is stuck in testing with one person having problems, I'm unable to reproduce any of those problems, and I haven't heard back from anyone else.

Then there's also the desire to have an option to run juat the UI on the thermostat and have the automation on another server.

And another O/S upgrade.

And the heat pumps

And another hardware revision

I'm going the best I can, but I'm only one person. 😮‍💨
