Report a transition to NAN when reduced reporting is enabled.
When reduce_db_reporting is on, this filter drops a NAN input if the last reported value was valid:
abs(NAN - last_reported_value) >= deltais false.is_first_reportis false.- The value is only reported once
heartbeat_duebecomes true.
So a sensor that becomes unavailable keeps showing its last valid value in Home Assistant for up to one hour. sen5x publishes NAN for invalid readings. x - id(sen55_temperature_offset).state and x - id(sen55_humidity_offset).state pass that NAN through. The on-device consumers also keep the stale value. These are update_air_quality_led and the aqi inputs pm_2_5 / pm_10_0.
The recovery path already works. A valid value after NAN goes through is_first_report.
The same block is copied at every reduced-reporting filter. Apply the fix at each one:
- CO2: Lines 345-348
- DPS310 pressure and temperature: Lines 384-387 and 409-412
- SEN55 PM1.0, PM2.5, PM4, PM10: Lines 438-441, 464-467, 490-493, 516-519
- SEN55 temperature, humidity, VOC: Lines 543-546, 570-573, 596-599
- Derived PM sensors: Lines 655-658, 688-691, 721-724, 754-757
- MICS4514 gases: Lines 799-802, 825-828, 851-854, 877-880, 903-906, 929-932
The logic is copied in 20 places, so every future fix also needs 20 edits. One shared helper would remove this duplication. You could put it in an esphome: includes: header, for example bool should_report(float x, float &last, uint32_t &last_ms, float delta). Each lambda would then only choose its delta.

Thanks for this, and for the table. It made the deltas easy to review, and the logic matches what MSR-2 already ships for Reduce DB Reporting.
One change: firmware PRs in our product repos go to beta, not main. Could you change the base branch to beta and rebase onto it? beta has moved ahead in Core.yaml, so expect a conflict or two, and the version bump will need to be newer than whatever beta is on when you rebase.
Once it's on beta we'll build it and take another look.

One more thing while you're rebasing: the reporting filter is the same lambda pasted 20 times. Could you move it into one file and include it from each sensor? For example, put the lambda in filters:
- !include { file: reduce_filter.yaml, vars: { delta: "${pm_reporting_delta}" } }Please use |

Reading the table, the thresholds make sense. I question the drive to reduce precision to the specifications, as it's useful to look at the data to understand how much measurement noise there is. (Well, combination of measurement noise and process noise.) Sensors are often more useful than they claim; an example is the Si7021 temperature/humidity sensor, which hazy memory puts at 1C accuracy, but I have it reporting at the meaurement granularity of 0.01C. I can see features at very low deltas that are real, even if absolute cal is off. This is all assuming that the precisions will be always, and the reporting frequency would be once/minute if this is not enabled, and on-demand/1hr if enabled. This also raises the question of how often measurements are taken, even if filtered. That uses power, and causes heating, which will throw off self-heating calibration. Thus I lean to either "measurements are simply every minute, and this avoids reporting if enabled", but if measurements need to be more often (because somebody explains why that actually makes sense to skeptical me) then there should be a "measurement frequency" that is just a number in seconds that is the interval for doing measurements. |

@bharvey88 Thanks for the review! Made the proposed changes, could have an another look? |

Report a transition to NAN when reduced reporting is enabled.
If x is NAN and last_reported_value is valid, no condition is true. The filter drops the NAN. Home Assistant and on-device consumers keep the stale value for up to one hour. A valid value after NAN still reports through is_first_report.

Summary
Add an opt-in reduced reporting mode for AIR-1 measurements. When enabled, meaningful changes publish immediately while stable values publish at least once per hour. Existing reporting behavior remains the default.
Context
AIR-1 environmental sensors update frequently and can produce a significant share of Home Assistant recorder data. Most small fluctuations add little value, but important air quality changes should remain responsive.
Changes
Measurement Configuration
The table documents how each decimal setting and reporting delta was selected. Reporting deltas apply only when Reduce DB Reporting is enabled, while decimal settings apply regardless of the switch state.
Closes #120
