Brand new to Hubitat. Just moved into a new home and have WAC fans that are on my Wifi. I would like to have the fans turn on if the temp in the house gets to a certain degree. Working on getting the thermostat, but do not see how to add the fans.
I think I can get the fans on Alexa.
Thanks for any advice.
I don't know about the fan, but if you can get it on Alexa:
Create a virtual contact sensor and allow Alexa to see it
Add an automation in Alexa that if contact is open, fan on. Closed, fan off.
You can now control the fan by opening and closing the virtual contact.
Extra credit: add several contact sensors, 1 for each speed.

@user464 Hubitat doesn't support that directly because it's cloud based but if it has an open API someone could potentially write an integration., That said you could likely use IFTTT (install the ifttt app on hubitat) or go with @napalmcsr if you have Alexa/echo

Sorry for the late reply, but just came across this. I have WAC fans, and this device driver works with them. Connects directly over Wi-Fi and status is reflected in the WAC app:
