Unhappy New home A/C not cooling

I bought a new three level townhome with around 2300 sqft of living space.
The problem with the a/c that it is not cooling. I switched it on for first time yesterday but even after being on for 4 hours there was no effect on temperature. The vents are thorwing cool air but the draft is very weak.
I looked in the main duct where the fan and filter are there and saw some condensation on it so I think the compressor is working out fine.
I didn't see anything that would control the flow of air between levels. I believe they are called dampers. Can just the dampers make the a/c that inefficient that won't cool at all as it is not even cooling in the basement.
Please let me know. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Thanks!

How is your air filter ??

It could possibly take 24 hours to get a house that size down to temp and remove the humidity.
