Location: Holland, Tx | I am sure I've walked in other trailers with LQ in the middle of summer, but I can't remember well...LOL!! Does the insulation of the front cause the interior to stay hotter in the hot Texas summers or does it keep it any cooler (of course, I'm referring to without ever turning the AC on)? |

Location: sc | Without outside intervention such as the AC, insulation only delays whatever temp change is going to take place.

Location: Tennessee | Insulation will just slow the transfer of heat one way or the other, so whether inside the trailer is hotter or cooler than outside will depend on how well it's insulated and how fast the temperature changes outside occur.
For LQ purposes, more insulation is always better, if that's what you're asking. |

Location: Holland, Tx | but (as I expected) if its hotter than hot outside and has been for several days (nights around here in the summer are still not much cooler than 80's) then it will also be hotter than hot in the trailer without outside forces (ac/fan/etc). |

Location: Arkansas | One thing that insulation helps with, is condensation. An uninsulated room will have major condensation and drip all over, where, with insulation, this is not a problem. |
