# Salus iT500

> Salus iT500 is a Marketplace integration for Home Assistant. It has 52 installs sharing analytics, needs the vendor's cloud and was last updated October 21, 2026.

From the [repository description](https://github.com/ZaBug/salus-it500):

> Home Assistant integration for the Salus iT500 thermostat via the mobile app cloud API, with confirmed commands

[Open in My Home Assistant](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/hacs_repository/?owner=ZaBug&repository=salus-it500&category=integration)

On Home Assistant 2026.11 or newer? [Open it in the Marketplace](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/marketplace_repository/?owner=ZaBug&repository=salus-it500&category=integration)

## Supports

- **Uses the vendor's cloud**: Needs an internet connection and an account with the vendor.
- **From the Marketplace**: Installed through the Marketplace, formerly HACS.
- **Actively maintained**: Its author released or pushed a change in the last six months.

## Setting it up

Install it from the Marketplace and restart Home Assistant, then add it under Settings, Devices and services.

### Salus account

- **Email**
- **Password**: If the password contains special characters and login fails, try it without them: Salus strips them when the password is created.

### Thermostat

- **Thermostat**

### Salus account

- **Email**
- **Password**

### After setup

- **Cloud polling interval**: Reads the copy kept by the Salus cloud. Does not wake the thermostat, so it costs no battery.
- **Wake the thermostat every (0 = never)**: The thermostat reports only when a value changes. Waking it forces a full report within seconds but uses battery. Commands always wake it.
