Yeh, a combination of a dew shield that extends 1.5x the diameter of the primary in front of the focuser and a baffled fan blowing up the tube from behind the mirror should be a great help.

I don't understand how a secondary heater does not cause problems with thermals coming off the secondary as it is warmed so I would tend to try the low tech solutions first.
