Welcome to the Orchid forum!
And no, your advice on watering is not correct. Depending on where you are keeping your Orchids/how fast they might dry out, it will differ from set up to set up. One waters Phalaenopsis as any other plant when they need it. The way I learned it is called "hefting the pot". Lift the pot and sort of gauge the weight of the pot when it is ready to be watered and also lift the pot after you just watered it ( because the bark / medium was getting dry) Now if you do this often enough, you will remember the weight of the pot and you will know when to water.
Now to water your plant, remember this is in nature an epiphyte, take it to the sink and water the medium with room temperature water, avoiding the crown of the plant. Let it drip off and place it back into its spot. If water gets into the crown it is a good idea to gently tissue it out, in nature Phals grow slightly tilted and water would not accumulate in the crown to create problems.
