What people report
GE SmartHQ appliances connect through the cloud v2 API, so some app features are missing. Fisher & Paykel units expose only a few entities.

| GE AC/thermostat appliances (climate) | Works Cloud | Works in Home Apple Home previously showed unknown current temperature; fixed | Current temperature fixed; shows correctly in Apple Home when bridgedSaved copySummary The climate entity for SmartHQ AC/thermostat appliances never reported a current temperature: the HA thermostat card, and Apple Home, when the entity is bridged over HomeKit, showed `unknown` for the room temperature, even though the appliance publishes the reading. ## Root cause `SmartHQThermostatClimate.current_temperature` was a hard-coded stub: [code] The `cloud.smarthq.service.thermostat.v1` service genuinely does not carry a measured temperature in its state, so there is nothing to read there. However, these appliances expose a sibling `cloud.smarthq.service.temperature` … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | PR #13 · 2026-07 |
| GE Appliances SmartHQ | Works | Washer, dryer, dishwasher, oven connected to HA; local API needs RJ45 adapterSaved copyI have SmartHQ with washer/dryer/dishwasher/oven and range all connected to Home Assistant. These are GE appliances not Haier though. Work as intended but honestly there is not much to automate aside from telling you the clothes have been damp for too long.

| GE AWCS08WWT air conditioner | Partly works Cloud | Advertises 62 F minimum; PR to enforce 64 F still openSaved copySummary - read the appliance model when creating thermostat climate entities - override the AWCS08WWT minimum to 64 F when its service config advertises 62 F - clamp outbound setpoint commands to the effective entity minimum - add regression coverage for both the exposed minimum and command payload ## Context The AWCS08WWT reports a 62 F minimum through `coolFahrenheitMinimum`, but the model does not accept setpoints below 64 F. Without a model-specific effective minimum, Home Assistant offers 62-63 F controls and forwards commands the appliance cannot honor.

| GE oven/stove (SmartHQ) | Partly works Cloud | Oven control may be tricky; SmartHQ via HACS or ESPHome serial bus add-onSaved copy… quick look: Z-wave stuff should be fine because you presumably have a z-wave coordinator attached (or accessible) to the machine you'd be using HA on. Stove wise, there appears to be two options, depending on your comfort level: using a SmartHQ integration via HACs or adding an ESPHome serial bus to make it local. As an FYI though, as of the next major release (2026.11), HACs will become Core to HA and be renamed "Marketplace". Just looking between those quickly, it looks like the integration is a bit handcuffed while the serial bus is more fleshed out. Though I have another option for you … Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit comment · 2026-10 |
