This is the default frost protection minimal temperature.

[ylnest2018]

Is there any way to change this?

[erwindouna]

It has been requested to put in the frost temperature protection: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/135480#discussion_r1957389318, during development. Why would you need a lower temperature than the current 5 degrees Celsius? 😃

[ylnest2018]

I don’t want it to be less than 5 I want it to be set to the last temperature I set it to.

Think of what this replaces in most cases, a split system AC Unit, if you press power off/on it remembers it’s last state it was set to, with the temperature displayed as that temperature. This is the logic I was going with

[erwindouna]

I see your point now - personally I don't use the "off" state, since I only use thermostats myself. It would be more convenient for an AC to remember it's previous state. Maybe I can make it so that if the last state is below the frost protection, it will only put on the minimum, else it should just remember your last state (i.e. 19 degrees Celsius).

[ylnest2018]

I’m getting a bit confused about being ‘below frost protection’ 19c is warmer than 5c im sorry if im not getting it just confused 😅

[barthelb]

Any plans to fix this situation? This arbitrary 5 degrees setup when turning off makes graphs unreadable as it goes from 5 to 20/30degrees with then a too big amplitude. It’s also very confusing as for a while I was really wondering were it comes from and for what reason. No chance to get back to previous situation?

[MacrosorcH]

I also completely agree that the 5 degrees setting is annoying and doesn't make sense: it makes graphs unreadable and it's unlike every other climate implementation I have seen in HA integrations. It should stay to the last set temperature or, if impossible, match the current temperature. @erwindouna Any plan to reconsider this?

[JamesW-AU]

Maybe I can make it so that if the last state is below the frost protection, it will only put on the minimum, else it should just remember your last state (i.e. 19 degrees Celsius).

This would be perfect :)
