Philips Air 2 MQTT

This project is a simple bridge that connects Philips Air Purifiers to MQTT. I use this to integrate my Philips Air Purifier into Home Assistant without having to use HACS.

Features

• Mode Control
• Light Control
• Filter Status
• PM2.5
• Allergen Index
• Home Assistant Auto Discovery

Supported Models

• AC2889/10 (I only tested this one)

Other models are probably also supported, but the AC2889 is the only model I own. Please open a ticket or submit a PR if you tested this with another model.

Configuration

Ensure you have access to an MQTT broker. If you don't have one set up, you can use Mosquitto or other brokers.

The project uses environment variables for configuration. Set the following environment variables before running the project:

Variable	Description	Default*
PHILIPS_AIR_HOST	Air Purifier IP/Host
PHILIPS_AIR_DEVICE_NAME	Air Purifier IP/Host
PHILIPS_AIR_PROTOCOL	http or coap	http
PHILIPS_AIR_REFRESH_INTERVAL	Status Refresh Interval in Seconds	120
MQTT_HOST	MQTT Broker IP/Host
MQTT_USERNAME	MQTT Broker Username
MQTT_PASSWORD	MQTT Broker Password
MQTT_PORT	IP or Host of you MQTT Broker	1883
MQTT_HA_AD_ENABLED	Home Assistant Auto Discovery enabled	true
MQTT_HA_AD_DELETE_ON_SHUTDOWN	Delete Home Assistant Auto Discovery Topic on Shutdown	false

*Variables without a default value are required

Usage using Docker

The easiest way to deploy this is using the docker image.

Create a file called docker-compose.yaml using the following contents:

version: '3.3'
services:
  philips-air-to-mqtt:
    image: philips-air-to-mqtt:latest
    environment:
      - MQTT_HOST=
      - MQTT_PORT=1883
      - MQTT_USERNAME=
      - MQTT_PASSWORD=
      - PHILIPS_AIR_HOST=
      - PHILIPS_AIR_DEVICE_NAME=
      - PHILIPS_AIR_PROTOCOL=http
      - PHILIPS_AIR_REFRESH_INTERVAL=120
      - MQTT_HA_AD_ENABLED=true
      - MQTT_HA_AD_DELETE_ON_SHUTDOWN=false
    restart: unless-stopped
    init: true

Starting the container:

docker-compose up
