ActronAir Neo: Compressor Energy Sensor Gone After Update

Hey everyone,

I wanted to bring to your attention an issue I've encountered with the latest update (2025.10.2) of the ActronAir Neo integration in Home Assistant. It seems the compressor power utility sensor, which was a recent and welcome addition, has vanished. Let's dive into the details so we can hopefully get this resolved.

📝 Bug Description

With the update to version 2025.10.2, the recently added compressor power utility sensor has disappeared. I'm assuming this is related to some diagnostic information that might have been removed in this version. It would be fantastic if we could get this sensor back, as it provides valuable insights into energy usage.

Compressor energy monitoring is crucial for understanding the energy consumption of your ActronAir Neo system. When this data is readily available in Home Assistant, it becomes much easier to identify opportunities for optimizing your system's performance and reducing energy waste. The compressor, being one of the most power-hungry components, is a key area to monitor. Having access to real-time and historical data from the compressor power utility sensor allows you to track trends, identify anomalies, and make informed decisions about adjusting your system's settings or usage patterns. Moreover, integrating this data into your broader home automation setup can unlock even more advanced energy management strategies, such as automatically adjusting temperature settings based on real-time energy consumption or triggering alerts when energy usage exceeds a predefined threshold. The absence of this sensor not only limits your ability to effectively monitor and manage your energy usage but also diminishes the overall value and functionality of the ActronAir Neo integration within your smart home ecosystem. Therefore, restoring the compressor power utility sensor is essential for empowering users to take control of their energy consumption and optimize the performance of their ActronAir Neo systems.

🔄 Steps to Reproduce

After updating to version 2025.10.2:

1. Navigate to your ActronAir Neo system in Home Assistant.
2. Check for the Compressor Energy and Compressor Power sensors. They are now unavailable.
3. You'll likely see a message like this: "This entity is no longer being provided by the actronair_neo integration. If the entity is no longer in use, delete it in settings."

The disappearance of the Compressor Energy and Compressor Power sensors after the update to version 2025.10.2 indicates a potential issue with the integration. These sensors are essential for monitoring the energy consumption and performance of the ActronAir Neo system's compressor, providing users with valuable insights into their HVAC system's efficiency. When these sensors are unavailable, users lose the ability to track energy usage, identify potential issues, and optimize their system's settings for maximum energy savings. The error message, "This entity is no longer being provided by the actronair_neo integration," suggests that the integration is no longer able to retrieve data from the compressor, possibly due to changes in the system's API or data structure. This can be frustrating for users who rely on these sensors to monitor their energy consumption and make informed decisions about their HVAC system's operation. To address this issue, it is crucial to investigate the cause of the sensor disappearance and restore their functionality in future updates of the ActronAir Neo integration. This will ensure that users can continue to benefit from the valuable insights provided by these sensors and effectively manage their energy consumption.

📋 Relevant Logs

📝 Additional Context

(No additional context provided)

The absence of relevant logs makes it challenging to pinpoint the exact cause of the issue. Logs are crucial for providing insights into the behavior of the integration, identifying errors or exceptions, and understanding the sequence of events that led to the problem. Without logs, troubleshooting becomes significantly more difficult, as developers and users are left to rely on guesswork and assumptions. In this case, relevant logs could have revealed whether the integration was encountering errors while attempting to retrieve data from the ActronAir Neo system, whether there were changes in the system's API or data structure that were causing compatibility issues, or whether there were any other underlying problems that were contributing to the disappearance of the compressor energy sensor. Therefore, it is essential to enable debug logging and include relevant logs when reporting issues with integrations, as this can greatly assist in diagnosing and resolving problems more quickly and effectively. By providing detailed logs, users can help developers understand the issue better and develop targeted solutions to address the root cause of the problem.

✅ Checklist

• [x] I have read the troubleshooting guide
• [x] I have searched existing issues to make sure this isn't a duplicate
• [x] I have tried restarting Home Assistant
• [x] I have verified my ActronAir Neo credentials are correct
• [ ] I have enabled debug logging and included relevant logs

Troubleshooting is the first step towards identifying and resolving issues with the ActronAir Neo integration. By following the troubleshooting guide, searching for existing issues, restarting Home Assistant, and verifying ActronAir Neo credentials, users can often resolve common problems without requiring further assistance. The troubleshooting guide provides step-by-step instructions and helpful tips for diagnosing and fixing issues, while searching for existing issues can reveal whether the problem has already been reported and addressed by other users or developers. Restarting Home Assistant can often resolve temporary glitches or conflicts, and verifying ActronAir Neo credentials ensures that the integration has the necessary permissions to access and interact with the system. However, when these initial troubleshooting steps fail to resolve the issue, it may be necessary to enable debug logging and include relevant logs when reporting the problem. Debug logging provides detailed information about the integration's behavior, which can be invaluable for developers in identifying the root cause of the issue and developing targeted solutions. By following a systematic troubleshooting approach, users can increase their chances of resolving issues quickly and effectively, minimizing downtime and ensuring that their ActronAir Neo integration continues to function smoothly.

Hopefully, by providing these details, the developers can quickly identify the issue and restore the compressor power utility sensor in a future update. It's a really useful feature for monitoring energy consumption!
