+You can utilise this integration to:
+
+### Turn on an exhaust fan when the unit is running
+
+You can automatically set a fan to run when the sensor 'status' is in the 'cleaning' mode, and turn off when the status is in the 'idle' mode.


Use US English and Home Assistant style in this section: “utilise” -> “use”, and format entity/attribute names and state values with backticks (for example, status, cleaning, idle) instead of single quotes.

Suggested change

You can utilise this integration to:

### Turn on an exhaust fan when the unit is running

You can automatically set a fan to run when the sensor 'status' is in the 'cleaning' mode, and turn off when the status is in the 'idle' mode.

You can use this integration to:

### Turn on an exhaust fan when the unit is running

 ha_domain: actron_air
 ha_platforms:
  - climate
+  - switch


ha_platforms now includes switch, but ha_category still only lists Climate. Add Switch to ha_category so the integrations index/category filtering reflects the new switch entities.

+## Supported functionality
+
+The **My integration** integration provides the following entities.


This sentence still contains the template placeholder “My integration”. Replace it with “CatGenie” so the Supported functionality section refers to the correct integration.

Suggested change

The **My integration** integration provides the following entities.

The **CatGenie** integration provides the following entities.

Copilot · 2026-04-30T11:29:53Z

+---
+
+The **CatGenie** {% term integration %} is used to integrate with the devices of [CatGenie](https://www.catgenie.com/). CatGenie creates automatic cat toilets.
+Use case: You can automatically trigger an exhaust fan when the CatGenie is running to remove any lingering odour.


Use American English spelling in docs: change “odour” to “odor”. Also consider rewriting the “Use case:” line as a normal sentence for readability.

Suggested change

Use case: You can automatically trigger an exhaust fan when the CatGenie is running to remove any lingering odour.

For example, you can automatically trigger an exhaust fan when the CatGenie is running to remove any lingering odor.

+1. Your device must support the CatGenie App
+2. Your device must be setup in the CatGenie App prior to setting up this integration


Prerequisites steps need copy edits for Home Assistant docs style: add periods, and use the verb form “set up” (not “setup”) when describing the action of configuring the device in the app.

Suggested change

1. Your device must support the CatGenie App

2. Your device must be setup in the CatGenie App prior to setting up this integration

1. Your device must support the CatGenie App.

2. Your device must be set up in the CatGenie App prior to setting up this integration.
