I believe it’s well insulated but do have some leaks around the front door, need to replace the gaskets around it. Even at nearly 100, when the thermostat goes from 72 to 76, It will not reach 76 and start kicking on again until mid afternoon so it holds the temp for quite a while. In fact during the spring when it gets down into the 50’s at night and up into the 80’s during the day it holds the cool air for overnight well enough that it was almost June before I had to turn on the AC.
