I have separate automations for turning on the HVAC and turning off the HVAC. When the "Turn HVAC On" automation gets triggered, one of the actions is to enable the "Turn HVAC Off" automation. One of the actions on "Turn HVAC Off" is to disable itself.
Does that get you what you want?
I don't really want to use two separate automations. I just figure it's more cluttered that way. And if I can do it all in one automation, why not do it? That definitely would work, but I want to see if I can do it in a single automation instead.
I have all of my automations for HVAC in a package (https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/configuration/packages/). Maybe it'll seem more tidy/less cluttered if you do it that way?
