Sensors

There are a number of great sensors which are exposed through this integration which are helpful. I use several UI blocks to display them nicely in my dashboard.

General Info Sensors

Some sensors are really just general information like Pump Speed, Chlorinator Setting, and Salt Level etc. I display those in the dashboard in a simple elements view:

Adjust to fit your needs and sensors.

type: entities
entities:
  - entity: sensor.PUMP_SPEED_SENSOR_ENTITY
    name: Pump Speed
  - entity: sensor.CHLORINATOR_SENSOR_ENTITY
    name: Chlorinator Setting
  - entity: sensor.CHLORINATOR_SALT_LEVEL_SENSOR_ENTITY
    name: Salt Level

Water and Air Temperature Graphs

I like to see the water and air temperatures with some history on my dashboard, so I use the custom:mini-graph-card which you can find in the HACS repositories.

You can add it (with some colour coding for the graph) using the following:

color_thresholds:
  - color: '#0000FF'
    value: 75
  - color: '#00FF00'
    value: 82
  - color: '#FF0000'
    value: 90
entities:
  - entity: sensor.POOL_WATER_TEMPERATURE_SENSOR_ENTITY
font_size: 75
hours_to_show: 24
icon: mdi:thermometer
line_color: blue
name: Pool Water Temperature History
