 Each controller zone is exposed as a full Home Assistant `climate` entity with current/target temperature and HVAC modes: Off, Auto (follow the controller house mode), Cool and Heat. The existing zone target `number` and enabled `switch` remain available for compatibility.
 
+From version 0.6.4, zone climate entities use `climate.<zone_name>_thermostat`, for example `climate.igor_thermostat`. On integration reload, existing zone climate registry entries are migrated to this scheme using the zone's current name. If the target entity ID is already occupied, the old ID is retained and Home Assistant logs a warning.
+
 When the controller detects optional GREE properties, the integration also creates switches for supported features such as panel light, Quiet, Turbo, X-FAN, Air, Health and native Sleep. Reload the integration (or restart Home Assistant) after upgrading so newly added entity types are created.
