About
Helios Easy Controls connects Home Assistant to Helios EasyControls 2.x ventilation units over Modbus TCP/IP. It talks to the unit locally and is set up in the UI by entering the host and a device name. A fan entity turns the ventilation unit on or off, changes its speed, and selects a preset such as auto, party or stand-by. Sensors cover pre-heater and after-heater hours and percentages, supply, extract, outside and outgoing air temperatures, humidity, CO₂, VOC and fan speeds. Binary sensors report bypass state and filter change needs, and text sensors show errors, warnings and information. Computed values for approximate airflow and heat recovery efficiency are added, along with a party mode service. Devices running EasyControls 3.x are not supported.
