Note
Building block integration
This humidifier is a building block integration that cannot be added to your Home Assistant directly but is used and provided by other integrations.
A building block integration differs from the typical integration that connects to a device or service. Instead, other integrations that do integrate a device or service into Home Assistant use this humidifier building block to provide entities, services, and other functionality that you can use in your automations or dashboards.
If one of your integrations features this building block, this page documents the functionality the humidifier building block offers.
The state of a humidifier entity
The state of a humidifier entity can be either On or Off.
In addition, the entity can have the following states:
- Unavailable: The entity is currently unavailable.
- Unknown: The state is not yet known.
Device class
A device class is a measurement categorization in Home Assistant. It influences how the entity is represented in the dashboard. This can be modified in the customize section. For example, different states may be represented by different icons, colors, or text.
The screenshot shows different text and UI for different device classes for humidifiers:
