Almost all the lights and devices in the house, the DSC alarm system and my Blue Iris camera security system are integrated into VERA and managed by a number of Android tablets around the house and Android smartphones running ImperiHome. I can essentially control and monitor the entire house locally and from anywhere in the world with data access but the only thing still missing is my HVAC system.
I have a RUUD Comfort Control system that has intelligent Air Handler, Compressor and Thermostat components and I’d like to find a way to integrate it into VERA. The various RUUD components communicate with each other to monitor running status. inside/outside temperature, component failure, etc.
There are a number of intelligent thermostats/controls on the market (Honeywell, NEST, etc.), many of which are compatible with VERA through Plugins, but I’m at a loss for how to use them with the RUUD system. I’ve tried contacting RUUD several times but they never reply.
Has anyone here addressed this problem and integrated a RUUD system with VERA?
