Having ductwork in the attic is not the best idea; it's like putting ice inside a hot oven and expecting it to stay cool. Unfortunately it's all too common, in many places in the south where there are no basements or crawl spaces other than the attic. The problem is much worse if the ductwork leaks; with older homes, leakage in ductwork can be as high as 50%. So either cold air is being pushed into the attic instead of your home, or worse, hot, stale air from the attic is being pulled into your home.This is why it is vital that the ductwork in your attic be sealed. Fixing the leaks is going to make your AC system more efficient and save you lots of money by giving you lower utility bills. You would fix your gardening hose if it were leaking water, right? Do the same with the ductwork in your attic-seal them! Sealed ductwork does wonders for your home, making it more comfortable, healthier, and energy efficient.
