During hot summer season here in the city of Manila were the temperature is around 34 to 39, I spray my dens with water every 5AM morning and 8AM in the evening and in the middle by 10AM and 2PM, i water only the medium. I use coconut husk as medium. If you see the pots, its only half filled with medium and the bottom is hallow to prevent rotting of roots.

For vanda's, i normally mount them on palm trees. But for those mounted on driftwood, I use pakpak lawin roots (pls see the picture, don't know what to call this plant in english, there alot of this kind of plant here in my place) as medium. i sit the vanda in medium and water them just like the dens.

hope this helps you.
