Sorry to interject myself into this topic but I'm now wondering how programmable these A/C units are, when used in heating mode.  Can you programme different temperatures at different times and on different days of the week, as you can with a central heating programmer?

From memory not locally at the unit itself, but it integrates with the Tuya Smart platform which allows you to do remote control and off/on and mode of operation on an arbitrary weekly schedule. Oddly temperature is missing but it's possible I haven't added the correct integration.

 

I was controlling it using a raspberry pi and the Python Tuya API, this is quite involved though as you have to get a local access key from the developer portal. This gave full control so allowed temperature and fan speed scheduling etc.

I have one of these units and the App allows you to plan for different temperatures, at different times, on different days.

It works very well and I can't imagine how it could be more flexible.
