Dreo Smart Device Integration for Home Assistant (Community)

Community HomeAssistant integration for Dreo brand smart devices.Currently supports most models of Fans, Air Conditioners, Humidifiers, Dehumidifiers and Space Heaters as well as ChefMaker. I do not work for Dreo; just something I'm doing for fun.

hass-dreo vs. the Official Dreo Integration (hass-dreoverse)

Dreo also maintains an official Home Assistant integration. Here's the short version of how they differ:

tl;dr — Both integrations now cover most Dreo device types. This project exposes more sensors, diagnostics, and controls per device and uses real-time WebSocket updates. The official integration has richer RGB lighting support and is backed by Dreo's engineering team. Choose whichever fits your priorities.

You can purchase these devices from Amazon: Dreo Fans on Amazon

This integration is based on the engineering that Gavin Zyonse did for the HomeBridge integration here: https://github.com/zyonse/homebridge-dreo.

This documentation is intended to be accurate for the branch/tag it's in. If you are installing a specific version (including latest) of the integration, please change current viewing tag in GitHub to see the matching documentation.

Supported Entity Types

Depending on your device model and capabilities, the integration creates the following Home Assistant entities:

• Fan - Primary fan control (speed, oscillation, preset modes)
• Climate - For heaters and air conditioners (temperature control, modes)
• Humidifier - For humidifiers and dehumidifiers
• Light - Display lights and main lights (on/off, brightness, color temperature when supported)
• RGB Light - Atmosphere/ambient lights for ceiling fans (RGB color control)
• Switch - Individual device features (child lock, oscillation, mute, etc.)
• Sensor - Temperature, humidity, and other sensor readings
• Number - Adjustable numeric settings
• Binary sensor - Status flags (e.g. water empty; diagnostic settle-pending for some air circulators)

Air circulator pan/tilt (fixedconf) notes

Some air circulators (notably DR-HPF017S) rate-limit successive pan/tilt (fixedconf) commands so rapid horizontal/vertical updates do not stack while the head is moving. See SUPPORTED_MODELS.md for the model-specific settle delay.

Diagnostic entities (disabled by default; enable under the device’s entity list):

If logs show a rejected angle command, recalibrate pan/tilt in the Dreo app (device settings / calibration), then reload this integration if Home Assistant stays out of sync.

Installation

HACS (Recommended)

Dreo is now part of the default HACS store. If you're not interested in development branches this is the easiest way to install.

Installing Dreo Smart Device Integration

1. Open HACS
2. Click Integrations
3. Search Dreo
4. Click the Dreo Smart Device Integration and install

Manually

Copy the dreo directory into your /config/custom_components directory, then restart your HomeAssistant Core.

Initial Configuration

1. In HA, open Settings
2. Click Devices & services
3. Click Add integration (blue button at the bottom right of the screen)
4. Search Dreo and select it
5. Enter your Dreo username & password (same login you use on the Dreo app)
6. If your Dreo account is registered in Europe, pick Europe from the Region dropdown. Most users can leave this on Auto-detect.

Once the Dreo app has been installed,

Options

This plugin supports configuration from the HomeAssistant UX. The following options are available.

Note that at present you need to restart HA when you change an option for it to take effect.

Device Management

Adding Devices

Use the manufacturer's app to set up a new device.

Removing Devices

You can remove individual Dreo devices from Home Assistant through the UI:

1. Navigate to Settings → Devices & Services
2. Click on the Dreo integration
3. Click on the device you want to remove
4. Click the three-dot menu (⋮) in the top right
5. Select Delete
6. Confirm the deletion

The device will be removed from Home Assistant but will remain in your Dreo account. If you reload the integration or restart Home Assistant, the device will be re-discovered and added back automatically.

Debugging

Use the Diagnostics feature in HomeAssistant to get diagnostics from the integration. Sensitive info should be redacted automatically.

In your configuration.yaml file, add this:

logger:
    logs:
        custom_components.dreo: debug

Now restart HomeAssistant. Perform the actions needed to generate some debugging info.

Download the full logs

Note that these may contain sensitive information, so do always check before sending them to someone.

1. In HA, open Settings
2. Click System
3. Click Logs
4. Click Download full log

Download diagnostics (.json file)

1. In HA, open Settings
2. Click Device & services
3. Click Dreo
4. Click on the three-dot hamburger menu (next to Configure) and click Download diagnostics.

Enable WebSocket debugging

In some cases, you may need to enable WebSocket debugging. You can do that by adding the following to your configuration.yaml file.

logger:
    logs:
        homeassistant.components.websocket_api: debug

Adding Support for New Devices

Don't see your model listed above? Create an issue and I'll add it.

Please make sure to include:

• Model number (in the format shown in Supported Models)
• Device type (fan, heater, humidifier, etc.)
• For fans: Number of speeds supported (not including "off")
• Does the device support oscillating?
• What preset modes are supported?
• Any special features (temperature display, timer, etc.)

Depending on answers, I may reach out and need you to pull some debug logs.

Debug Logs for New Devices

1. Enable debugging
2. Go to the Dreo app on your mobile device and perform the various commands you want to be able to use in HA. Dreo servers will send updates to the WebSocket that the integration is listening on.
3. Go look at the logs, you should see something like the below. Create an issue and include the lines related to pydreo, the diagnostics json file, and if possible, what actions you performed in the app.
