(bit urgent) Which thermostaats are supported?
hi all (and especially Homey's founders),
As I am having an installation - next week - of a new general heating (CV-ketel in Dutch) plus a new thermostaat, I'd like to know which types of thermostaat are going to be supported by Homey ?
Is this the case for Essent's "E-thermostaat" ?
I'd appreciate to know more asap because i need to decide before the end of this week which one I need to order. Thanks so much!!

"de E-thermostaat werkt niet met Wi-Fi. De thermostaat wordt van stroom voorzien via de thermostaatkabel uit de cv-ketel. Op de meeste cv-ketels is deze stroomvoorziening niet voldoende om een wifi-antenne/ontvanger te voorzien van de juiste spanning zonder een extra stroomvoorziening (adapter) te plaatsen. De E-thermostaat communiceert via ICY-Net (propriety protocol, 868 MHz) met AES Encryptie met de Hub. De Hub is via een kabel verbonden met de internetrouter."
So the question is basically: will Homey will get support for ICY-Net (which I doubt, b/c it's a propriety protocol...)
The ICY E-thermostaat communicates with a hub which communicates to a WiFi access point. The specs say it can be controlled through the portal (e-thermostaat.nl). The plugin for Vera uses xml-files, probably to communicate with the portal. So I guess it can be done :-)
Then still the question is whether the guys behind Homey will bring support or some other developer? Maybe they can jump in at this topic?
We will support more thermostats, but I can't guarantee that right now, as negotiations with manufacturers are still going.
Why import a thermostat from the UK? if there is a Dutch alternative, the Nefit Easy.
Works with opentherm protocol and accessible via IP.

Another problem with Nest is that the onboard relays are only 24V, so you then need to wire to additional relays between the thermostat and heating equipment.
Let Homey control a Nefit Easy ! The thermostat with opentherm protocol and WiFi
Much information can be found at forum.micasaverde.com for almost every device in homeautomation.

It's a wifi thermostat with mobile and web App and I want to know if could be posible to integrate with Homey.
Thanks.
De reden is de aparte aansturing per zone. Dit gebeurt via nieuw te monteren,wifi-gestuurde thermostaatkranen. Zeer benieuwd of dit ondersteund kan worden in de Homey!
In the fourth quarter of this year there will be a software update available for the Nefit easy thermostat that may operate through a web browser. Is it possible for Homey to take control and regulate the temperature in my room?
Did you have time to work on the Honeywell EvoHome subject yet?
We are currently getting in touch with Honeywell to discuss the possibilities about working together to support their EvoHome and Round thermostats. We will look at both the external API and direct 868 communication, but some of the protocols they use are proprietary.
We were warned by the Dutch representative we spoke that it might take some time as Honeywell is a rather large, and therefore less responsive, company, but we'll do our best to get to then as fast as possible. When we have more information on this topic well get right back to you in this topic!
Best,
Stefan
We support adjusting the temperature and setting an external temperature source (e.g. NetAtmo Weather Station).
GeoFencing is integrated in Homey, so you'd just configure the Thermosmart in the flow editor "When you are close to home"
Any updates on support for Nefit Easy?
