Account Sharing

⚠️ It is recommended to use a dedicated account for use with Homebridge.

Rheem only allows one device to be subscribed to real-time updates, so if you open the Rheem app then the Homebridge plugin will silently stop receiving updates.

The plugin will eventually resubscribe after being idle for an extended period, but you could miss updates in the meantime. Using a separate account will avoid this issue.

To get started, visit "Account Sharing" in the Rheem app menu.

Device Details

⚠️ This has only been confirmed with a 2024 Heat Pump Water Heater (XE65T10HM00U0). It will not work with water heaters using the Home Comfort WiFi Module. You are welcome to try other equipment, but you may run into issues. If you do, please open a ticket and we can work together to try and support your equipment.

While optional, providing additional details about your device gives more accurate real-time info, such as true current water temperature for water heaters. To use this feature, you will need to collect additional info about your device: serialNumber, deviceName, and activeKey.

The easiest way to get the serialNumber is by visiting this site. Enter your Econet username and password and it'll give you a list of serial numbers.

{
  "name": "My Water Heater",
  "serial_number": "00-11-22-33-44-aa-bb-cc-dd" <-- THIS IS YOUR SERIAL NUMBER
}

For deviceName and activeKey, you will need to connect to your devices WiFi.

1. Put your equipment in WiFi setup mode — for most controllers, press and hold the WiFi button
2. Connect to the WiFi network (e.g. EcoNet-XXXX)
3. Visit https://192.168.10.1/cred and you should see something like the following:

{
  "SYSTEM-KEY":"e2e699cb0bb0bbb88fc8858cb5a401",
  "SYSTEM-SECRET":"E2E699CB0BE6C6FADDB1B0BC9A20",
  "ACTIVE-KEY":"0123456789abcdef", <-- THIS IS YOUR ACTIVE KEY
  "DEVICE-NAME":"fedcba9876543210", <-- THIS IS YOUR DEVICE NAME
  "IDENTITY":"13577054-594d-48a3-b02a-e49ed0af8f5e",
  "AUTH_URL":"rheem.clearblade.com",
  "CLOUDURL":"rheem.clearblade.com",
  "SAUTHPOR":8906,
  "SCLODPOR":1884
}

4. Copy and paste the pieces you need
5. Reconnect your device to your WiFi network by opening the Rheem app and choosing "Add Product"

Enter the serialNumber, deviceName, and activeKey you collected from above in the Homebridge Econet Rheem config UI and restart Homebridge. You should now see more accurate real-time information in the Home app!
