ALL SALES ARE FINAL and refunds are not granted. In the case of thermostat or property transfer, any unused portion of a pre-paid subscription may be transfered to another party at InThrMa's discretion.

|
All sales final. |
8) EMAILS

This email will only be sent to your registration email on file and is solely intended to familiarize you with the services and features offered by InThrMa EMS.
|
You will receive helpful emails from us for the first 2 weeks after creating a new account. |
9) CALL HOME
For users of Proliphix NT, TM and IMT series thermostats, each thermostat will have its "Call Home" settings updated/switched from the default factory settings to the appropriate settings for that thermostat to Call Home to the InThrMa EMS system. Making this change, on your behalf, ensures fewer service interruptions as it allows our services to track your IP address should it change.
|
Your NT, TM, AND IMT thermostats will call home to our servers for more reliable connectivity. |
10) COMPATIBILITY
InThrMa EMS users may NOT also use the Proliphix UEM service/services for thermostats registered in your InThrMa EMS account. USING BOTH SERVICES CONCURRENTLY WILL RESULT IN HAPHAZARD AND ERRATIC THERMOSTAT BEHAVIOR.. "Using both services" is defined as: having one or more thermostats "registered" in both service accounts at any given time and doing so voids your right to any implied or granted support rights from InThrMa Inc.
|
Only use one service. Erratic thermostat behavior is no fun to diagnose, nor is it comfortable or energy efficient. |

Once your account expires we give you a two week grace period to retain your account data. |
