I live north of seattle and humidity runs 80 to 96 % always thev best solution for me is feed my compressors Nitrogen
I have a Tuxing Twin cylinder ,GX CS2 GxCS4 and only feed them nitrogen the GX CS2 is my traveler along with a 20 cuft bottle of nitrogen. I worked in the welding compressed gas industry for the last 50 years so I get mine cheaper than most but N2 is not expensive and is EVERYWHERE any welding supply store, fire extinguisher store ,farm supply etc.

Rebuilt the pump, replaced the pre dryer desiccant and silica beads and away we go! Sheesh 480cc is more work than 280cc Pumped up the S510 and rebuilt pump last night. There was a little bit of moisture on the top of the 1st stage chamber. Never had any visible moisture till now but I was desperate to shoot it and used it with the expired dryer beads. (they were VERY green) I recommend the predryer for sure for the extra $12/15 a year to replace it. And I angle my guns fill port as per you folks recommendations!!

Can't you "roast" the beads dry in a oven or hair dryer to reuse?

I have heard that! Lol for the couple bucks once or twice a year should be affordable. I have only ever pumped inside. I'm sure outside would need more replacement beads.
