Home Assistant component for C545 Winix Air Purifier

Summary

A custom component to interact with Winix C545 Air Purifier. This has also been reported to work with these models: AM90, HR1000, C909

Installation

This can be installed by copying all the files from custom_components/winix/ to <config directory>/custom_components/winix/. Next add Winix integration from Add Integration and use your credentials from Winix mobile app.

• You should now see one device and 4 entities being created.

• The Air QValue sensor reports the qValue reported by Winix purifier. This value is related to air quality although I am not exactly sure what it represents.

• The AQI sensor matches the led light on the purifier.

  • Good (Blue) = 1
  • Fair (Amber) = 2
  • Poor (Red) = 3

• The Filter Life sensor represents the left filter life and is based on an initial life of 9 months.

• The fan entity supports speed and preset modes

• The device data is fetched every 30 seconds.
• There are 3 new services winix.plasmawave_off, winix.plasmawave_on, plasmawave_toggle in addition to the default fan services fan.speed, fan.toggle, fan.turn_off, fan.turn_on, fan.set_preset_mode.

Note

• If purifiers are added/removed, then you would want to restart HomeAssistant.

• Winix does not support simultaneous login from multiple devices. If you logged into the mobile app after configuring HomeAssistant, then the HomeAssistant session gets flagged as invalid and vice-versa.

Breaking Changes

• 1.1.0 changed the sensor implementation. The aqi sensor id might be different now.

• 1.0.0 introduces config flow and previous yaml based setup is no longer supported. You would want to delete that setup and proceed to setup the intgeration as mentioned in Installation section.
