Aprilaire works, but be aware that the thermostat itself will only display the humidity (If I recall correctly). I think you still have access to both temp and humidity through the comms tho.

That depends how you set it up. If the stat is set as a humidistat, it takes over the thermostat completely. But, if you leave the humidity as a remote, the thermostat will still show the temperature, and report the humidity on the remote readout.

You can display the temperature on the stat while having the humidity info available through communication. It's a switch setting.
