We repainted the ceiling high with Sherwin Williams outdoor primer/paint so we will see if the shadows come back.
I wouldn't insulate the ceiling because of the hot tub, unless you want to heat the lanai in cold weather. In any event, I don't think an insulated ceiling will have any effect on the ceiling crack issue.
