The usual suspects
A loaded filter or matted coil
The first two things air crosses. Either one throttles the whole house evenly.
A blower problem
A weakening motor or wrong speed setting moves less air everywhere, gradually.
Duct leaks or crushes
Attic runs get crushed, pulled apart or chewed — the rooms on that run go quiet.
Closed or blocked registers
Closing "unused" vents raises duct pressure and starves the coil. It saves nothing.
Weak air, strong fix.
We measure static pressure and target the real restriction — no guesswork, no unnecessary duct cleaning.

New filter, every vent open, returns clear of furniture.

- 3
Check for ice — weak air that worsened over hours often means a frozen coil.

Quick answers
Should I close vents in unused rooms?
No — it raises duct pressure, strains the blower and can ice the coil. Room-by-room control is what zoning is for.
Will duct cleaning fix it?
Only if the ducts are truly the restriction — less common than the ads suggest. We measure first so you pay for the actual fix.
How do you find a duct leak without opening walls?
Static-pressure readings plus room-by-room airflow localize the run; most leaks live at accessible joints. You’d know the price before anything happens.
Done guessing?
Full airflow = full cooling from equipment you already own. Book the visit — price upfront.
