I have a separate humidistat; can I use it with a Ritetemp thermostat?

Yes, for use with Ritetemp models 8085C and 8082C. If your Ritetemp thermostat has a built in humidistat (with an H terminal), and your heating system has a built in humidifier, connect it as below.
The thermostat can control a humidifier as part of any heating system if the humidifiers 24VAC control system is the same as the heating system as shown below.
If you have a humidifier and wish this thermostat to control it, connect the humidifier control wire to the H terminal on the new Ritetemp thermostat. The MIN (minimum) humidity setting on the thermostat will now turn the humidifier on and off as a function of the humidity level in your home. The thermostat will automatically turn on the air handler fan when the humidifier is turned on. It only operates in the HEAT mode only and operates with the heat running or off to maintain your selected humidity level.
See page 18 in the Professional reference guide for more details.
