Checklist

  • I have updated to the latest available Home Assistant version.
  • I have cleared the cache of my browser.
  • I have tried a different browser to see if it is related to my browser.
  • I have tried reproducing the issue in safe mode to rule out problems with unsupported custom resources.

Describe the issue you are experiencing

I created an area card for my living room, which contains a few temperature sensors, and smart plugs with power and energy monitoring. With it, I can see my room's temperature, power, and energy consumption at a quick glance.

Describe the behavior you expected

The temperature sensors display an averaged value (since I have them in a few spots in the room), the power sensors are summed, as are their energy sensors. Averaging the power of an area does not make sense and I would not expect to see it (by default) unless I specifically configured it. Likewise for energy. I would rather see that my living room is consuming 300W total and not the 25W average (actual values). After all, it is the total energy I am charged for.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. create a new area
  2. on the dashboard create a card for that area
  3. add multiple temperature, power, and energy sensors
  4. observe results

Hi, this is just another case I noticed - and it is valid for sensors providing volume information

I have two sensors providing the fill-level of different oil tanks.
Instead of creating the sum of both sensors, it is showing the average.

Even worse - I have also some sensors providing information about the usage-statistics (utility meters, etc.)
In total - 7 sensors that are taken into account for the average.

@ChristophCaina, @blakejalexander I have opened a PR at #20749 that should display the area power, energy, and volume sensors as a summation. Let me know if you get a chance to test these changes or if you have any additional thoughts.

Hi, I would love to test this - but honestly, I am not sure how to roll out the PR on my installation... :-(

@seevee unfortunately I'm also not really in a position to quickly test a PR with my current setup, and with my two weeks of holiday starting soon it'll take some time. If this is still open by the time I'm free, I'll see if I can give it a go.
