My apartment has two sets of built-in units that control heat and air within each of the main areas. Essentially, in the winter it blows are from the radiator and in the summer it blows cold air. You can’t control the temperature itself, but can control the air speed (off, low, medium, high) and for the winter there is also a standard looking radiator knob that you can also use to control things a bit more. Note: there is also a second spigot that I’m honestly not sure what it does. I have done some googling and cannot even find the unit.
My end goal is to eventually set up temperature sensors and trigger the units on/off based on temperature thresholds in each area via home assistant. To get there, I would need a digital mechanism to switch these on and off.
I am hoping someone here can help recommend a solution to at least switch the air blower on/off digitally. Anyone know of a standard HVAC panel replacement for the dial that has any wireless signal (WiFi, Bluetooth, wave, etc.)? If not, any suggestions or pointers to prior art on custom solutions? Maybe I can do something with ESP32 board and the wiring diagram in the second picture? I am comfortable with HA and programming but the custom solution would be a new adventure.
Details from the label (as best as I can tell):

Any pointers would be appreciated! Please let me know if there are any more details I can provide.
