Home Assistant Integration for devices supported by the Daikin Onecta App

In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge

What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.

What people report

Daikin AC and Altherma units work through the Daikin cloud, with polling delays, API call limits and occasional cloud-side reverts. HomeKit Bridge fan speed control was a problem and now has an opt-in alias mode.

Daikin AlthermaWorks CloudOwner reports it works excellently via cloud API
Saved copy
The Daikin AC and Altherma I have all work excellent. The Onecta app and their public API work, but the data they provide is limited, see #46. Also because it is polling there is always a delay and you can only make a limited amount of calls per day. I do hope that at some point we do get a local API again, that would make local control much easier, but until that happens (very unlikely) the public cloud API does work, but it has its limitations.

Daikin BRP069C4x adapter unitsWorks CloudNewer units controlled through Onecta cloud
Saved copy
I have 3 indoor units usin BRP069B4x controllers, which still support the local API and one newer unit using a BRP069C4x controller. Since I've added the daikin_onecta integration to control the newer unit, it created duplicate entities for the other 3 units that use the local API. Would it be possible to add the ability to filter out devices, such that I can continue to use the Daikin integration for the older units and only use the daikin_onecta integration for the new one? Thanks, Andrei

Daikin EmuraWorksFirmware 2.0.0 reported working without problems
Saved copy
Our Emuras also run 2_0_0 and do not show any issues. AFAIK: daikin_onecta connects to the Daikin Onecta cloud and so do the local devices. A firmware breaking change of local devices primarily should affect the connection between local and cloud. This may be one of the few advantages of "cloud only" devices. ;)

Daikin Stylish FTXA20CW / FTXA35CWWorks CloudOwner reports Daikin AC and Altherma work well; cloud polling limits data
Saved copy
Hi everyone, I am currently planning a 3-unit AC project for my house (2x FTXA20CW and 1x FTXA35CW – Daikin Stylish). My main use case: Automatically manage the units (power, temperature, modes) via Home Assistant to optimize my solar energy surplus. I really like the design and thinness of the Stylish units. However, I am quite concerned about relying on the Onecta Cloud. I’ve had frustrating experiences with cloud-based integrations in the past due to server unavailability or strict polling limits. I am aware of Faikin, but I’m not super enthusiastic about opening brand-new units, and it …

Daikin Onecta climate (indoor units)Partly works CloudPartly in Home
Fan speed control failed before opt-in HomeKit fan alias option
HomeKit fan speed names fixed by opt-in homekit_fan_mode_aliases option
Saved copy
Added an opt-in `homekit_fan_mode_aliases` option to expose HomeKit-compatible climate fan speed names without changing the default Home Assistant UI behavior. When enabled, the integration keeps existing Daikin fan modes but also exposes low, middle, medium, and high for HomeKit. The mapping is: `low` -> `quiet` `middle` -> fixed speed `2` `medium` -> fixed speed `3` `high` -> fixed speed `5` Existing numeric fan mode service calls continue to work. The default remains disabled so users who only use Home Assistant do not see any extra fan mode values. Tests were added for default behavior, …

Daikin PerferaPartly works CloudSlow, unreliable commands; traced to upstream cloud API and Wi-Fi
Saved copy
Hallo, I'm currently using a Daikin Perfera A model connected to Home Assistant via this API integration. Previously, everything worked fine, but since the most recent update, I've been experiencing very unstable and unreliable behavior from the API or air conditioning unit. What I'm experiencing: Commands are executed very slowly or sometimes not at all. The behavior seems inconsistent and unreliable. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to identify the exact root cause yet Something strange is that the airco disconnects and reconnects itself every few minutes to the access point. This was …

Daikin Sky Air Alpha with BRP069C41Partly works CloudCloud or wired controller reverts Heat/Cool to Cool; BRC1H field setting
Saved copy
Description When I set the climate mode to Heat/Cool and the fan mode to Auto from Home Assistant, the change is initially reflected in the Daikin Onecta app on iPhone (Mode: Auto, Fan: Auto). However, after a short time the Daikin app jumps to Mode: Cool, Fan: Auto, and shortly after that the Home Assistant climate card also reverts to Mode: Cool, Fan: Auto. Expected behavior: the unit should stay in `auto` / `heat_cool` mode after I set it from Home Assistant. ## Hardware - Outdoor unit: Daikin Sky Air Alpha Series RZAG71NV1 - Indoor unit: FBA71A2VEB9 (FBA71A9) - Wired controller: BRC1H52W …
