I've learned to live with it because it would cost too much to change now...

I don't agree with your outside vendor regarding the supply vents being near the window. That would be a typical design in a cold climate where you want to heat the perimeter of the house. In warm climates, the supply vents should not be near the windows. But, the supply vent should be located on the opposite side of the room from the return vent, or at least 5 or 6 feet away from it.
