+
+The `evohome` climate platform integrates your _EU-based_ [Honeywell Connect Comfort](https://international.mytotalconnectcomfort.com/Account/Login) CH/DHW controller into Home Assistant, enabling control of its operating mode.
+
+It is related to the honeywell climate component](/components/climate.honeywell/), which allows limited integration with evohome Heating zones.  These two components should be usuable side-by-side, but YMMV.
+
+The evohome evotouch controller supports seven distict modes: Auto, AutoWithEco, Away, DayOff, HeatingOff, and Custom; AutoWithReset is a 7th, hidden, mode.
+
+Currently, only the standard HA operating modes are supported: 'Eco' (AutoWithEco), and 'Off' (HeatingOff), and 'Auto' (all other evohome modes). 'Away' (Away) mode is supported separately.
+
+The actual operating modes are tracked/reported via `device_state_attributes`.
+
+<p class='note'>
+Full configuration details can be found on the main [evohome component](/components/evohome/) page.

+
+The `evohome` platform is the main component to set up and integrate all supported evohome devices.
+
+It uses the [evohomeclient](https://pypi.org/project/evohomeclient/) client library and so will let you control (only) _EU-based_ [Honeywell Connect Comfort](https://international.mytotalconnectcomfort.com/Account/Login) systems.
+
+Currently, only Controllers are supported; support for Heating zones and DHW controllers will be added at a later time.
+
+It is related to the [honeywell](/components/climate.honeywell/) climate component, which allows limited integration with evohome Heating zones.  These two components should be usuable side-by-side, but YMMV.
+
+
+## {% linkable_title Configuration %}
+
+To use this component in your installation, add the following to your `configuration.yaml` file:
+
+```yaml
+# Example configuration.yaml entry
+evohome:
+  - username: YOUR_USERNAME
+    password: YOUR_PASSWORD
+    location_idx: 0
+```
+This is a IoT cloud-polling device, and the `scan_interval` is currently fixed at 3 minutes.  Testing has indicated that this is a safe interval that - by itself - shouldn't cause you to be rate-limited by Honeywell.
+
+
