No the ceiling and front side are already insulated inside. The 2 fans dropped the temp to 73 which about what it has been doing the past few hours. It is up to 68 degrees outside and we will shut the fans off when we hit about 72 degrees. We will close the door and not go back in until tonight when the outside air cools down. We are thinking of putting a screen door on the inside so we could leave the fans run all night long, worried about rats and mice getting inside the open door.
