This is a distinct hvac_mode on Tekmar thermostats, but the HA climate entity doesn't have a matching HVACMode for emergency heat. Instead, the climate entity will show 'heat' mode (return HVACMode.HEAT) when the thermostat is in emergency mode since HA can't show the true mode of the thermostat.

A new switch for emergency heat will show if the thermostat is in emergency mode (and set it). During normal operation the thermostat will not show if the emergency stage is active or not, only if it's in that mode to force operation.
