Weather Word Descriptions from Dew Point, Temperature, VOC & Tado (Simple Air Comfort Card)
Putting words to what it feels like
This flow converts numeric temperature and humidity values into text descriptions. Makes them available in Home Assistant and use in Simple Air Comfort Card or other Custom Cards.
It contains 5 methods.
- TADO COMFORT TEXT DESCRIPTION (TADO API)
- Humidty DRY, COMFY, HUMID
- Temperature COLD, COMFY, WARM
- Gets the words from Tado API, Funtion Node filters based on payload address.
- Requires node-red-tado-client to extract the text description from the Tado API
- Requires Node-RED Companion Integration
- HUMIDITY COMFORT TEXT DESCRIPTION (NON TADO DEVICES)
- Humidty , DRY(<39.9%),(40%)COMFY(59.9%)**, HUMID(>60%) (Same as Tado)
- Switches Temperatures to words based on the above values. msg.topic changes the words
- Requires any Temperature Sensors.
- Requires Node-RED Companion Integration
- DEWPOINT COMFORT TEXT DESCRIPTION
- DewPoint Changes words based on the below values:
- Requires DewPoint Sensor Calculator
- Requires any Temperature and Humidy Sensors.
- Requires Node-RED Companion Integration
