2 apple IDs for two Regions

I travel between France and Canada and spend about 2 months in each location. To remotely control the heat pump in my French house, I need an App unavailable in Canada, where I have my current Apple ID, and only available in France. I have mobile phones and contracts in each country. What steps must I take to allow access to the app using my French phone? If I set up a second Apple ID on my French phone for App purchases, does it affect my cloud?

iPhone 8, iOS 16
