The return in question upstairs has no dust buildup. Oh wait, I see
what you are saying. Since it has been pulling unfiltered air in from
the attic I probably need to see about cleaning the evaporator coils inside.

I have noticed my home central AC does not seem to be working all that
great. We have the main part of the house downstairs with a small room
above the garage. There are 2 return vents down, and 1 in the small room
up. Many years ago when I was going to change all 3 filters, I noticed the
one upstairs was not dirty at all. I sort of looked at it and it did not
seem to be hooked up and for some reason I did not think much about it. I
just figured when they built the house they put it in but never ran the duct
to it. The other day I was in the attic looking from something and I
noticed a huge return duct heading over in that area but still did not think
anything about it. Today I am working driving around and all the sudden it
hit me. That duct just HAS to be laying loose over there and I never
noticed. When I got home, sure enough, it was just laying there, not hooked
up to where its supposed to be at the return vent upstairs. I have been
running this thing for over 5 years and the whole time in the summer its
pulling in that super hot air up there, and in the winter pulling in the
cold air. I bet my bills drop!! I am hoping anyway. That AC seems like its
running non stop all afternoon till night. I bet it doesnt do that now.
