Summary
This release introduces configurable icon sizes for climate page buttons, leverages new
optimizations from ESPHome 2025.11.0, and includes breaking changes that require ESPHome
2025.11.0 or newer.
Breaking Changes
ESPHome 2025.11.0 Required
ESPHome 2025.11.0 or newer is now required - this release takes advantage of optimizations
introduced in ESPHome 2025.11.0 and is not compatible with earlier versions.
Required action:
- Upgrade to ESPHome 2025.11.0 or newer before updating to this firmware version
- Earlier ESPHome versions will not build this release successfully
Temperature Step Substitution Deprecated
Deprecated temp_step substitution - temperature step values are now hard-coded for
consistency and optimized memory usage.
Previous behavior:
temp_stepsubstitution allowed custom temperature step configuration
New behavior:
- Target temperature step: 0.5°C or 1°F (hard-coded)
- Current temperature step: 0.1°C or 0.1°F (hard-coded)
Migration:
- Remove
temp_stepsubstitution from your configuration if present - Temperature steps now follow standard HVAC conventions
Result: Simplified configuration with standardized temperature steps following common HVAC
practices.
Key Enhancements
Configurable Climate Page Icon Size
Added configurable icon size for climate page buttons - climate page button icons can now
be resized via automation/blueprint configuration.
New capabilities:
- Adjust icon size for climate control buttons
- Larger touch area for improved usability
- Configurable through Home Assistant automation/blueprint
Benefits:
- Better accessibility with larger icons and touch areas
- Customizable to user preferences
- Improved touch responsiveness
Result: More flexible and accessible climate page interface with configurable icon sizes and
enhanced touch areas.
ESPHome 2025.11.0 Optimizations
Implemented optimizations enabled by ESPHome 2025.11.0 - leveraged new optimization
features introduced in ESPHome 2025.11.0 for improved performance and memory efficiency.
Improvements:
- Reduced flash memory usage through ESPHome 2025.11.0 optimizations
- Enhanced runtime performance
- Better memory management
Result: Improved performance and memory efficiency through ESPHome 2025.11.0 features.
Climate icon configuration and ESPHome 2025.11.0 optimizations. Requires ESPHome 2025.11.0+.
