Water Consumption Panel in HA 2022.11

[LukaszP2]

Hi,

In HA 2022.11 will be Water Consumption Panel. I got beta but no sensor fo it. Can you add it?

Unfortunately it's not possible currently. The main API that the integration calls doesn't have volume usage information returned (only the Sonic app gets that info currently). I have made the request to Hero Labs to add it to their public API. If and when this happens I will make the code change to allow it to be used by the energy dashboard

I have restarted work on a new version of the integration that communicates directly with the local signal/sonic device. This integration should be able to calculate usage accurately as it will receive data every second when the valve is in use.

Great news! If you want some beta test to do just let me know.

Sorry if it's a bit unrelated to the question at hand but since you mention it, is there a separate repo for that local integration or is it too far from ready ?
I'm in the market for a smart valve myself and I'd be tempted to go Sonic if the local API works, or at least if it looks like it'll work in the future.

how it going? HL add volume usage information?

Keen to help where I can to get consumption data into HA. DM if you need anything.

I urge anybody wanting local API control of this device to email Hero. This is an expensive device and without local API I cannot use it despite the product itself being perfect for my situation. If/when they introduce local API I'm in, and maybe the more people that tell them the more chance there is of them adding it.

Would it be possible to have a characteristics that doesnt say liter PER minute but just L
As per HA documentation that is possible to use Riemmans Integral sum to have cumulative usage but it cannot use l/min
