Re: Guess what is wrong
I like Jeffs light theory, but can't use that. So going with you sat your flashlight down when coming out and forgot it. Weak, but thats all I got.

Re: Guess what is wrong
No, the cooling mode was running, I had already inspected the attic and found this warm area while doing the IR scan. I made a note about low or missing insulation and was moving on through the house. Something made me go back and lower the stairs again, I went back up and saw the problem.

Re: Guess what is wrong
This house had a 3.5 ton unit for the upper level with two return air registers visible but the third one was covered over with sheetrock. The hot attic air is being drawn into the duct some but mostly just trapped hot air inside the blocked off duct and up next to the ceiling.
Not all 3.5 ton units have three return registers, especially when the other two were not small in size.
