To get your [NuHeat Signature](http://www.nuheat.com/products/thermostats/signature-thermostat) thermostats working within Home Assistant, please follow the instructions for the general [NuHeat component](/components/nuheat)

{% linkable_title Concepts %}

The NuHeat Thermostat supports the following key concepts.

The target temperature is the temperature that the device attempts to achieve. The target temperature is either determined by the schedule programmed into the thermostat (auto mode) or may be overridden. When the target temperature is set by Home Assistant, the thermostat will hold this temperature until the schedule is resumed.

{% linkable_title Attributes %}

The following attributes are provided by the NuHeat thermostat: name, temperature_unit, current_temperature, target_temperature, current_hold_mode, current_operation, operation_list, min_temp and max_temp.

{% linkable_title Attribute name %}

Returns the name of the NuHeat Thermostat.

Attribute type	Description
String	Name of the thermostat

{% linkable_title Attribute temperature_unit %}

Returns the unit of measurement used for temperature by the thermostat.

Attribute type	Description
String	Name of the temperature unit

{% linkable_title Attribute current_temperature %}

Returns the current temperature measured by the thermostat.

Attribute type	Description
Integer	Currently measured temperature

{% linkable_title Attribute target_temperature %}

Returns the target temperature of the thermostat, when the thermostat is not in auto operation mode.

Attribute type	Description
Integer	Target temperature

{% linkable_title Attribute current_hold_mode %}

Returns the current temperature hold, if any.

Attribute type	Description
String	'temperature', 'temporary_temperature', 'auto', etc.

{% linkable_title Attribute current_operation %}

Returns the current operation of the thermostat.

Attribute type	Description
String	'heat', 'idle'

{% linkable_title Attribute operation_list %}

Returns the list of available operation modes.

Attribute type	Description
List of String	Available operation modes

{% linkable_title Attribute min_temp %}

Returns the minimum supported temperature by the thermostat

Attribute type	Description
Integer	Minimum supported temperature

{% linkable_title Attribute max_temp %}

Returns the maximum supported temperature by the thermostat

Attribute type	Description
Integer	Maximum supported temperature

{% linkable_title Services %}

The following services are provided by the NuHeat Thermostat: set_temperature, set_hold_mode, nuheat_resume_program.

The services fan_min_on_time, set_aux_heat, set_away_mode, set_humidity, set_fan_mode, set_operation_mode and set_swing_mode offered by the Climate component are not implemented for this thermostat.

{% linkable_title Service set_temperature %}

Puts the thermostat into an indefinite hold at the given temperature.

Service data attribute	Optional	Description
entity_id	yes	String or list of strings that point at entity_id's of climate devices to control. Else targets all.
temperature	no	Desired target temperature (when not in auto mode)

Only the target temperatures relevant for the current operation mode need to be provided.

{% linkable_title Service set_hold_mode %}

Sets the thermostat's hold mode. The NuHeat thermostat supports "auto" (to run the thermostat's programmed schedule), "temperature" (to indefinitely hold the thermostat's current target temperature), or "temporary_temperature" (to hold the thermostat's current target temperature until the thermostat's next scheduled event).

Service data attribute	Optional	Description
entity_id	yes	String or list of strings that point at entity_id's of climate devices to control. Else targets all.
hold_mode	no	New value of hold mode.

{% linkable_title Service nuheat_resume_program %}

Resumes the currently active schedule.

Service data attribute	Optional	Description
entity_id	yes	String or list of strings that point at entity_id's of climate devices to control. Else targets all.
