Question low temps in Summer

I'm just curious how cool others growing orchids in their homes keep the temperature in the Summer? The coolest my orchids get in the house is 68*-70*. Is this okay? Some time in October the evenings will start to cool down outside and I can get them down to 62*-65*. I realize some of this depends on the type of plants (I have Phals., Paphs., a Brs. and a Brsdm.)
