Breaking change
The
hvac_action()
property has been removed from Evohome zones as this data was clearly inaccurate - the algorithm used to provide this data was not reliable, and there is no reasonable hope for a satisfactory alternative.The user will have no indication if a zone is actively calling for heat (
CURRENT_HVAC_*
), nor if the heat source is currently active. However, they will continue to have thehvac_mode()
property, which will indicate if the heating is enabled, or not (HVAC_MODE_*
).This will be most obvious to the end user by the absence of this information in the UI. A detailed explanation, with a specific example can be seen in #29559.
This is a breaking change, and there is no intervention required from the end-user.
