I am wondering if a filter where the air intakes are located in the ceiling of each room would provide a better dust filter intake.
This cant be right......

I personally retrofitted my filter to the ceiling intake. This helps prevent a build up of dust in the ducts. Bought a replacement grill at Home Depot and it was a simple job. My AC guy said it was a great idea and they had tried to convince the developer to make them standard but they wouldn't go for it.
Just because a filter looks clean doesn't necessarily mean it is. Hold a used filter up to light and compare it with a new one.
I replace my filter every three months.
