Huge fan in the airhandler, only ran full bore once on a hot day rapid cool. Blew the insulated drapes open. Most times you need a tell tale to see the interior fan on, cant hear it run.

Oddly, sometimes it is pushing relatively cool air heating the house
Yep. See it a lot. Well if you don't see main dampers you will need to add some either way new system or not. Track your legs and get a feel where they go and spend $200 bucks on some dampers and add them in one weekend.
Realistically if the upper house is one run you just need one damper
