Hey man, thanks for this great blueprint!
Been using it for a while, but back then I took the shortcut of making a copy of the blueprint and rename the scene name internally for each aircon I wanted to control. I see now you've changed the naming of the scene to change automatically. Really nice, now it's a blueprint again :)

Would you be so kind to also include

source_url: https://gist.github.com/raffy-ops/2bdf967036d8d274fb1f62572ed5e545
in the next version? That makes checking for updates much easier in the future.

Just a request from my side: could you also add a temperature if window is opened? So you are able to choose between climate.set_hvac_mode and climate.set_temperatur? Thx

Yes this feature would be really good. But it would need to integrate air conditioning management, because it can be in cooling mode and heating mode. Lower the temperature in winter, but raise the temperature in summer. Thank you for your work.

Thank you @raffy-ops for this blueprint! Please check my fork to find a little fix in the branch with timeout set
