Midea
midea
The Midea integration lets you monitor and control home appliances that use the Midea protocol, communicating with them directly over your local network. Because Midea also manufactures appliances for many other brands, this integration works with rebranded devices that speak the same protocol, not only those sold as "Midea".

The current Home Assistant base includes `midea-local` 11.0.1, which exposes device capabilities. This change creates the Home Assistant pump switch only when an A1 device reports pump support.
