Thanks for watching! Let me know your favorite automations below.

Awesome video. I like that you included the screenshots of the automations. My wife will love the freezer one as people keep switching off the meat freezer in the garage.

If you live in an area where the general humidity has a wide range, rather than setting the exhaust fan to operate at a specific threshold, do a compare with another humidity sensor in your living room or elsewhere. A better more dynamic threshold.

I really liked the fridge temperature sensing to indicate an open door or power failure. Unique idea ive not seen or thought of. The water shutoff is still one of my favorites.

I notice you are using Google and Amazon. I do too. You mentioned that you have automations that run on conditions. Neither Google nor Alexa apps have the ability to add conditions. I read somewhere that Home Assistant could do it. So, I got a PI5, set it up with a zigbee and z-wave router and installed Home Assistant. I can't figure out how to add my devices that were not automatically detected. Please do a video on adding devices. I struggle with figuring out what code I have to install and where to get it. Looking forward to more from you.

@ 11:57 ... super curious about this. I also have a GE dehumidifier connected to a smartplug that is managed by HA. Challenge I have is that the GE once power is restored at the plug it requires to press the "On" button on the top console... how did you circumvent that? is there a way to hardwire that so its always on when power is present?

I love the bathroom humidity automation. Is there a place where I could find the full automation posted?
