Setting ecobee to control radiant heat and mini split

My kitchen ecobee controls the radiant heat but there’s no air-conditioning in that room except for the mini split in the wall which was controlled with a remote. So for now the ecobee only has a heat setting. Is there a way to set up the ecobee and flare so that I can control the mini split through the ecobee too? It seems that I have to force a cooling mode in the ecobee somehow?

  Hi Daniel,

  Flair can handle devices that have different system capabilities. When the mode is set to heat, Flair will operate the radiant heat. When the mode is set to cool, Flair will operate the mini split.

  When configuring Flair, integrate the ecboee and set its System Capabilities to "Heat".

  

  When adding the mini split set its System Capabilities to "Cool".

  

  Finally, you'll set Set Point Controller to Flair, to allow the Mode and set points to be controlled by Flair.

  

  If you use Flair scheduling, you'll want to create separate schedules for cooling and heating and switch them seasonally.

  All the best,

  Finn

  Hi Finn-

  I have a very similar situation to Daniel’s. What I would like to do, however, is have my ecobee premium thermostat control both the heat and the mini split (which would be integrated with a Flair puck.)

  So basically I want ecobee to be the single interface for setting the heat and Flair puck temperature settings for the mini split. This is because family and guests know to use ecobee thermostats everywhere else in the house.

  Is this doable?

  Thanks!
  Patrick
