Is my peace lily fairing okay or is it a sign of an impending demise?

My retail-bought peace lily seems to be showing signs of it not doing so hot. A week in after I bought it, I realized some seared-like holes on the bottom leaves. This is my first peace lily and I really can’t pinpoint the culprit granted that I don’t know what sort of treatment it went through at the retail store. I keep my peace lily on the floor without a tray near my pothos, dumb cane, and snake plant in low light near my south facing sliding door. I live in a dry air climate (Northern Colorado) and keep a mini humidifer turned on for 12 hours every other day. Do you mind providing me a step by step health check on peace lily? Thank you!
