Please note that this repository is no longer being actively maintained or updated. After further evaluation, I found a better solution to my needs by using the SMARTLIGHT SLWF-01pro. This product offers the functionality I require and aligns more closely with my goals for future projects.
Feel free to explore the code and use it as you see fit, but be aware that no further development or support will be provided.
Thank you for your understanding, and if you need any help please feel free to reach out!

I've incorporated these IR commands into my Home Assistant setup, allowing me to transmit them using an IR blaster. To enable this functionality, I had to introduce specific quirks to facilitate the learning and transmission of these commands. With these quirks in place, I can now efficiently teach my IR blaster these codes and issue them directly from my Home Assistant environment.
I've installed the SmartIR component, and created a new file called 4209.json to host the commands. Then, I customized the SmartIR integration to be able to call the services exposed by the abovementioned quirks. With this, I now have an climate entity that can be used natively.
Kudos to @ferehcarb for the development of the quirk, and to @smartHomeHub for their custom integration.
