King Air 350 Environmental Bleed Switch

I have been sic on a 350 for a few years. Our s.o.p. is to move the environmental bleed switch to normal after gear retraction. We fly out of Los Angeles with frequent trips to Las Vegas. Needless to say heat is always an issue (106 the other day in Vegas). For you experienced King Air people would it not be better to leave the environmental bleed switch at low until perhaps 10,000' to facilitate better cabin cooling or should it be set to normal after takeoff?
