There’s moisture in my safe. Is this normal?

Depending on the safe you’re using, you may find that if you open it for the first time in several weeks or months, there can be a musty smell and/or moisture build-up. In some cases, this can lead to water or moisture damage to the items inside. Due to the fireproof and waterproof structure of many safes, they can provide the perfect condition to absorb moisture inside the safe. To help prevent this from happening, you should plan to air a First Alert Safe out at least every two weeks for a minimum of 20 minutes each time.

You can also invest in a small packet of silica gel, the same packets that are used to keep moisture out of boxes and bags. It will help absorb moisture in your safe. Delicate items like pictures or intricate jewelry should be placed in an air-tight container or bag before you put them into your safe to help avoid damage. All of these precautions should help to maintain a First Alert Safe, as well as the provide moisture control for valuable items inside it.
