So long as it is misted frequently enough and gets the right food, it will likely stay happy until you decide what else you want to try.

Both of my Phals sit in an East facing bay window. We keep the house at 70*F, but the window creates its own little climate for the orchids. Its never overly humid, or warm. Would spraying twice a day work better? Its hard for me to tell because over watering and under watering look the same in the leaves.
