In this video I show and explain the ceiling auto fan control I use in my Bedroom to change the fan speed while I am sleeping. Based on the time and the temperature of the room, I have programmed HA to set the fan speed and to turn it off just before my alarm is to ring as a further incentive to get my but up out of bed. One of the automations in this group of 3 automations uses the new ‘NOT’ condition to make the decision of should the fan be turned off or not.
I have all the YAML here on my website, as some of the character would not display properly in the provided YouTube Text Description Area. Please see the link to my website below to find the YAML code to copy and modify as you feel appropriate.
If you have any set-up and support questions I suggest going to my Discord server linked below as I will see messages there first. Comments are always welcome anywhere.
