Question Question on setup for watering indoor orchids

I have all my orchids (70+-) inside (no sink nearby))while our new orchid/sun room gets built. Yesterday was my orchid watering day and I killed my back dragging all the orchids outside to water. I need to figure out a better way when they get into their new home. The setup is still getting figured out except there will be shelves and I have trays already for my tiered shelving .

Does anybody have a good way of watering their orchids without dragging them all to the sink?? I thought I had seen some where that trays could be hooked up to a hose so the water can drain, but I can't find it now. I have quite a few plants in S/H which I have to flush or I would think I could just let the water drain into the trays for humidity, if the orchids were on some kind of grate, but it seems like too much water would be in there with t he S/H flushing...

So, any ideas of what you all have done, i will continue my search. They were supposed to pour the conrete on Friday, but here it is Monday and nothing yet.. I'm keeping my fingers crossed -because that will make it seem like it is really happening...

Thanks all
