HVAC scheduling (piefed.social)

How are you scheduling your climate/hvac temperatures? I'm currently using the scheduler card, which works ok, I'm just wondering if there's a better option available. I just need a simple way to schedule the daily schedules.

I have a heat pump/mini splits, so I'd like to be able to schedule these independently. I do usually have them off in the summer, and a couple of the integrations I've looked at don't have that ability, just a minimum temperature. I could however, just disable the schedule during summer, I haven't fully decided on that yet.

I'm just curious what others are using/prefer.

A couple I've looked at, but seem like overkill for simple scheduling (feel free to tell me I'm wrong/overlooked something):

  1. velair
  2. versatile thermostat
  3. there was another I looked at briefly and don't remember the name, but realized it was vibe-coded, so those aren't generally maintained very long

Edit: the minisplits I have don't have an actual thermostat. I use esphome controllers to control each one via wifi

I just use the built-in scheduler on my thermostat, it lets me set different temps for different times of day and days of the week, and it's easy to adjust when the weather changes.

Home assistant could be another option, but theres a decent amount of setup involved
