| ConnectLife ducted systems | Partly works Cloud | Listed; dynamic zone damper control still in an open PRSaved copyThis pull request adds robust support for dynamic zone damper controls (0–100%) for ducted/zone HVAC models, improving both backend parsing and Home Assistant entity creation.

I see there is initial support for a few of the appliances available. I am curious if there is going to be support for the dishwashers, washing machines, tumble dryers? Are there things that the community needs to do in order to assist in getting support for these things sooner? (ie list models, any config requirements, betas etc?)

| ConnectLife washing machine (type 025) | Requested Cloud | Only remaining time, state and status exposed in open PRSaved copyAdded initial support for washing machines with type 025. Only 3 values are currently exposed: Remaining time, state and status. Enumeration support for state and status should be completed (I created template sensors in HA for this).
