That’s it! We currently only have the Pure A9 air purifier at home. This air purifier alone has temperature, humidity, CO2, PM 2.5... various air quality indicators (as shown below), and can be used with various automated air conditioners and dehumidifiers... It’s all very useful!
If you still don’t know how to set up Home Assistant automation, you can also refer to these two tutorials:
Hi neil, I have a JIS 300 series air purifier
After integrating into HA, you can only use the manual mode to adjust the fan speed and cannot use the smart mode. If you use the smart mode, an error will pop up.
In addition, the device sometimes displays an unavailable status, but as long as it is left for half an hour, it will display normally again.
The above problem only appeared after Electrolux added api key verification.
I want to ask if anyone has the same situation QQ
Hi Axun, I have never encountered this situation so far.
Yes, yes, I have encountered the same situation as you. It turns out that I am not alone.
I have 300 500, pure A9 and pure A9.2 at home.
Extreme 300 and 500 smarts also report an error, but can use quiet mode. However, pure auto has no problem.
I'm the same as you about API token, but I don't have a solution at the moment. I can only leave it alone and let it automatically recover. I saw someone on github changed the time interval from 60 to 120, and some people found that the API token is only valid for 24 hours...
I think the master on github said that the wind speed adjustment of the Extreme 300/500 only has 3-stage adjustment, unlike the A9, which can be adjusted without steps, so in HA, you can only choose quiet mode, which has a number of steps...
In addition, after I changed the time to 120, it rarely became unavailable!!!!!
