We have a new Gree Whio 270L HWHP, and running Home Assistant in our house, but none of the integrations seem to work with the HWHP. They all seem to be for heat pumps / climate or for air-to-water units.

This one seemed close, but didn't work.

I would like to monitor the temperature, enable/disable boost, etc.

Ideally network based, i.e. without a custom ESP, but if that's the only option, I can do that.

I just got the 200L one installed today and have the exact same question, I have port scanned the heck out of it and cannot find a listening modbus port.

This is spooky. I too had the Gree WHIO 270L installed yesterday. Three in NZ on almost the same day.

Anyway, I posted to the dev on Reddit it doesn't work for us.

It may be the WHIO isn't supported

And I was just looking at heat pump hot water options and the Gree was on the shortlist. If not possible to link to Home Assistant then I'll remove it!

I've got it partly working by forking an integration that used the cloud API. It was built for heat pumps, and didn't work with non-European servers, so I had to modify it. I can read the target and current temperature, and can change the target temperature!

I can't see other things like Boost yes/no, but it's a start :) It also has entities/settings that aren't related to HWHP's so I have to clean it up a bit.

It does mean it is cloud dependent, but I'm fine with that.

All thanks to Claude :)

@Jase2985 sure, it's very much WIP and the docs need to be updated. You need to add this repo as custom repo to HACS: https://github.com/roldengarm/homeassistant-gree-cloud

Then, add the Gree Climate Cloud integration, enter your details (select Australia for region), and your HWHP should show up :)
