Washing Machine / Dryer Notifications Blueprint
This blueprint monitors washing machine or dryer appliances and sends notifications for various events throughout the wash/dry cycle.
Features
- Start notification with cycle duration, estimated end time, and mode details
- Completion notification (reminder to unload clothes) with energy report
- "Almost done" notification (configurable minutes before end)
- Pause/Resume notifications (detect when cycle is paused or resumed)
- Error message notifications
- Preparation mode notification (e.g., for dryer prep)
- Tub/drum cleaning reminder based on wash counter
- Power consumption monitoring with energy tracking per cycle
- Fully customizable notification messages (i18n support)
- Debug notifications for troubleshooting
State Machine
The automation tracks the appliance through these states:
| State | Description |
|---|---|
| IDLE | Waiting for cycle to start |
| RUNNING | Cycle in progress (start notification sent) |
| PAUSED | Cycle temporarily paused (pause notification sent) |
| FINISHING | Near completion (time-to-end notification sent) |
| COMPLETED | Cycle done (completion notification sent, state reset) |
Persistent State Keys
| Key | Description |
|---|---|
nass |
Notification About Start Sent |
nart |
Notification About Remaining Time Sent |
naps |
Notification About Preparation Sent |
napas |
Notification About Pause Sent |
wasp |
Was Paused flag |
cst |
Cycle Start Time (ISO timestamp) |
esmp |
Energy Samples accumulator (Wh) |
lst |
Last Sample Time (ISO timestamp) |
Message Template Variables
All message templates support these placeholder variables (use single braces):
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
{appliance_name} |
Device name (e.g., "Washing Machine") |
{remaining} |
Remaining time as string (e.g., "01:30:00") |
{estimated_end} |
Estimated completion time (e.g., "14:30") |
{minutes} |
Remaining minutes as number (e.g., 90) |
{error} |
Error message text (only in error notification) |
{tub_count} |
Tub clean counter value (only in tub clean notification) |
{tub_threshold} |
Tub clean threshold (only in tub clean notification) |
{details} |
Startup details from sensors (only in start notification) |
{energy_kwh} |
Energy consumed in kWh (only in completion notification) |
{energy_cost} |
Estimated cost (only in completion notification) |
Requirements
- Sensors for: remaining time, run state, error messages
input_textentity for persistent state storage- Notification service entity
- (Optional) Power sensor for energy tracking
Note
Default messages are in Russian for LG ThinQ integration. Customize messages in the "Messages" section for your language.
