Ya no apple needed, just a few clicks and install the HK integration. Works great for my Ecobee - no apple products.

HomeKit DeviceWorks LocalWorks fully local via HomeKit with internet blocked; some cloud features missing

Ecobee via HomeKit can be 100% local. I have the ecobee 3 blocked from the internet and it works perfectly via HA. It’s obviously missing some features since it can’t call home such as Alexa and you can’t see the outside temp on device but I don’t use that anyway

ecobeeWorksTen years old, still supported, connected to HA and HomeKit

I have had my same Ecobee 3 for 10 years now, they have continued support for this ancient relic and it’s connected to HA, Homekit, Google. Moved with me 3 times, and works flawlessly. If you can spend a few bucks more, get one.

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
