I use one of the following that you can find at midway. It’s basically desiccant but in housing that has a humidity indicator on the face. When it turns pink you remove it from the safe and plug it into the wall and let it heat up for several hours. As it heats up the window will fill with moisture and when the window clears its good for another couple of months.
In both of my safes here in Indiana (HUMID) they are good for several months in the summer and 3 or 4 in the winter.
I also have a Golden Rod dehumidifier but when I purchased my new safes neither have holes in them to run a cord since both are fire rated safes and I didn’t want to put a hole in them. So it’s setting in a box.
I will agree a heater like the Golden Rod is better but the AC issue takes away from their advantage.

.One other thing, if you’re safe is setting on concrete, even if there is carpet between them put 2x4’s under the safe to get them off the floor and allow air space between.
