1: Can I use both InThrMa and UEM?
Both Proliphix and InThrMa strongly discourage the use of both systems at the same time. Please ensure that you have deleted any thermostats used with InThrMa from your UEM account if you have one.

2: What is InThrMa?
InThrMa (Intelligent Thermal Management) provides tools and services for taking advantage of your Proliphix Internet enabled thermostat. Our tools enable you to maximize your investment in Proliphix hardware by visualizing and controlling your HVAC in a whole new way.

3: Am I likely to be interested in InThrMa?
We definitely think so and so do our users. You've just spent a lot of money on a very unique programmable thermostat and as you know there are much less expensive programmable thermostats out there. You're interested in both data and control - that's why you chose to go with Proliphix.
InThrMa is the ultimate tool for your Proliphix thermostat. Go ahead and see for yourself - we offer a completely free 2 week trial - there is no need to get your wallet out to try InThrMa.

4: How does InThrMa work?
With InThrMa there is no software to download, install or update. InThrMa is accessed from your web browser - at home, at work or from your mobile phone. Our servers poll your thermostats over the internet and store the collected data in our secure database.

5: What extra capabilities does InThrMa provide?
InThrMa polls your Proliphix thermostats (and weatherbug.com) for temperature data and provides:
  • Raw Data Logging
  • Dynamic Color Graphing
  • A Dashboard for Viewing & Managing all Tstats
  • Custom Programming
  • Extensive Alerting
  • Monthly Reports & Summaries
  • Mobile Access & Control

6: Does my Proliphix Thermostat need internet access?
Yes. Otherwise we'd be in the magic business - and that we are not...

top
7: I'm having trouble setting up my router for use with InThrMa... got any advice?
Sure! Check our Router Config Guide

top
8: Do I need any special plugins for my browser to use InThrMa?
Just one. Our graphing modules use Adobe Flash which you probably already have installed in your browser. You might want to upgrade to the latest version which can be found at Adobe.com.

9: How does this work?
On a schedule we poll both your thermostat and weather data to get all the relevant data. We store all this data on our secure database servers and then we analyze and calculate relevant statistics that help you better manage your energy consumption.

top
10: How much network bandwidth does InThrMa consume?
Each site can be slightly different based on implementation details but you should see no more than 3MB of traffic per thermostat per day. That's less than a single MP3 file download.

top
11: How does billing for InThrMa work?
InThrMa does annual billing - 30 days before your account expires you will receive an invoice for next years subscription.
We use PayPal for all of our billing. Since we use Paypal we never see or have access to your credit card details.

12: Is this available for use world-wide?
Yes.

13: Something we didn't cover here?
Just ask...

14: I'd really love it if you added a feature that did 'xyz'...
