I wouldn't just randomly add insulation unless it's very obvious where it would benefit, especially if it cuts down on the breathing room around the coils. In fact, best mod is to just clean the coils (reminder to self to clean the coils).

I've got a cheapo FLIR camera that I'd use to find cold spots if there's a good way to insulate it.
