Hell yeah poor/no attic insulation can hurt ... I am wondering if you either have a BIG house, or the system just isn't venting enough places, or the right places, to get the air cool enough by the thermostat, making the unit work harder to achieve that temperature by the thermostat. Another factor can be the cost of electricity by you.
