# EcoTouch Binding

The openHAB EcoTouch binding allows interaction with a Waterkotte (opens new window) heat pump.

# Supported Things

Thing type Description
geo Waterkotte EcoTouch Geo + EcoVent
air Waterkotte EcoTouch Air + EcoVent

This binding was tested with a Waterkotte DS 5027 Ai DS 5010.5Ai geothermal heat pump.
