[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 1676475, member: 109229"] Hi all, I guess I’m lucky to have this problem as I’m about to move into a new home that I’ve had built on 33 acres. I have 2 Champion gun safes and 28 long guns, some high-end, some sentimental, etc., but anyway I just had the safes moved to my new basement (not fun). My old basement was finished and dry as a bone. The new basement is not finished and seems to be averaging 60% relative humidity. My question is: What is the percentage of RH that would be considered “normal” and not a concern? I do take precautions with silica gel in the safes, light coat of oil on the guns, etc., but at what point should I consider going a step further and maybe getting a golden rod or dehumidifier? Thanks for any insight. [/QUOTE]
