What causes ac damage on houseplants?
Air conditioning and forced-air heating strip the environment of humidity. Even if watered on a schedule, air plants in the direct path of a vent will desiccate faster than they can absorb moisture, leading to leaf curling and browning.
Common first steps
- Relocate plants away from any direct air vents or drafty windows
- Increase misting frequency to daily if living in a low-humidity or high-AC climate
- Place air plants near a humidifier or on a pebble tray
