# Programmable Thermostat

> Programmable Thermostat is a Marketplace integration for Home Assistant. It has 77 installs sharing analytics, works locally and was last updated March 13, 2026.

Programmable Thermostat is a climate integration that varies its target temperature according to a sensor's value. It is a revision of the Generic Thermostat component and runs locally. It adds a climate entity that controls heaters and coolers based on a room temperature sensor and a planned temperature sensor. In automatic mode the target follows the planned sensor, which can describe the desired temperature for each day and hour, while heat and cool modes are manual and ignore the plan. Settings include minimum and maximum temperature, an activation delta, allowed modes, startup mode and minimum cycle duration. A related climate can be named so that one climate does not switch off a heater that another is using. Setup is done in the UI.
