Itâs a good sign that the leaves are still in rather good condition considering the root health. An orchid with minimal to no roots is worrisome, but we have lots of tricks we can try to get it to sprout new ones. In fact, my wife has been in this exact predicament with several of her rescue orchids. Root rot can happen so quickly sometimes. The good news is that you can still save an orchid with few to no roots!
I have two 4-ton units in a house that was built in 1959. It's 98 degrees outside right now, and on one side of the house (west side) the vents are blowing out at 64-65 degrees and other side of the house (east side) is blowing at 68 degrees. Do I have a problem or can this be expected?
Best Answer: the book says between 38 and 44 depending on outside temperature and humidity. The coldest that the air conditioning evaporator that the incoming air passes over can get is 33 degrees. That's because if it were 32 degrees the humidity in the air would freeze on the evaporator and cause it to ice over. Then no air could go through the evaporator and the system wouldn't work. As a rule of thumb the temperature of the air rises about 5 degrees as it passes through the ducts to the outlet.
