Summer time, AC does not work much because the ground floor temperature is not high, but he 2nd floor rooms in the front of the house and and den on the ground floor is too hot. This is partly due to sun exposure to these rooms during summer time.
During winter time, the furnace must be working more so the the ground floor temperature is maintained and as such the 2nd floor front rooms are too hotter.
This may be something to do with the air flow to front part of the house and the back part of the house.
However, trying to find why the living room where the thermostat is located is always colder comparatively during summer or winter time?
This is 1 year old house and there is no humidifier or dehumidifier in the house. The basement is not colder.
Most of the time,,,, the best way to learn about your new home, have questions answered, to check the performance of the homes systems, and to ensure things are working properly and as intended, is to have a proper and thorough new home warranty inspection by a competent and experienced new home warranty inspector.
If every thing checks out - insulation, air flow, returns, balancing, etc., then the best way to help with the hot / cold separation is to keep the furnace fan in the ON position all year.
