Automating Ceiling Fan Speed from Ecobee Sensor

I can’t afford one of those Haiku fans, so I have an Ecobee sensor just under my lights for temperature sensing in the tallest part of my house. This reports to the Ecobee and I want to take that value and compare it to the temperature of the temperature on the Ecobee. These values would then set the speeds high, medium, or low. What I don’t know is if this should be created with a template or not? I’m not familiar enough with templates to feel comfortable, I sort of understand what they are doing at each step but I still feel lost.

There is a field in the states of Ecobee, current_temperature: 66 and then I can retrieve the numerical state value from the sensor, but I’m not sure how I would do a comparison for more than, equal to, and less than.

Can anybody confirm if I will need to use a template and if so, can you guide me on how to set that up?

Thank you,
Paul
