Frequently asked question
This project stems from the need to bring Hisense heat pumps into Home Assistant, addressing the absence of an official solution. It required over a year of work, from reverse engineering the protocol to developing a controller that guarantees stability and safety.
The controller has been tested on AHZ-080CDS1 models. All Hi-Therma series heat pumps are supported experimentally. If you are still unsure, feel free to contact us here.
No, the device is fully standalone. No additional hardware is required.
No, any standard USB power supply with a USB-C connector will work.
No, the HBS Bridge controller can share the same communication bus with other devices without causing conflicts.
The HBS Bridge must be connected to the H-Net transmission interface present on the machine. The bus is found on contacts 1 and 2 on terminal block TB2 or TB4.
Firmware updates automatically whenever a new revision is released.
Not necessarily. Even though it's recommended, the device supports MQTT Autodiscovery and works with any broker. More info here.
