Which version of ESPHome has the issue?
ESPHome 2026.6.1
What type of installation are you using?
Home Assistant Add-on
What platform are you using?
ESP8266
Component causing the issue
MIDEA
YAML Config
These substitutions allow the end user to override certain values
substitutions:
name: air-conditioner-esp
friendly_name: "Air Conditioner"
wifi_ap_ssid: "AC-wifi fallback Hotspot"
wifi_ap_password: "xxxxxx"
Additional substitutions could be added here to make it really easy for the user to override defaults.
I am adding a some for example purposes.
follow_me_sensor: climate.living_room_thermostat
midea_beeper: false
visual_min_temperature: "17 °C"
visual_max_temperature: "30 °C"
visual_temperature_step: "0.5 °C"
esphome:
name: "${name}"
Friendly names are used where appropriate in Home Assistant
friendly_name: "${friendly_name}"
Automatically add the mac address to the name
so you can use a single firmware for all devices
#name_add_mac_suffix: true
This will allow for (future) project identification,
configuration and updates.
