Default A good reason to have home warranty get the HVAC installer
to check the balance is that often balancing may require an adjustment of the baffles in the ducting....if they can't get it accomplished by the louvers in the house.

Another tip most people do not take up on is to leave the furnace fan on manual....running all the time. It provides much better distribution of the air when the heat source is not running. With no ceiling fans or furnace fan running all the air heated or cold just "hangs" there. It is not a significant cost to run the fan. My first choice is to have the ceiling fans on low in high volume ceiling areas. Second choice is to run the furnace fan. Either option facilitates better distribution during the cooling season. Our ceiling fans are on 24/365.
