Insufficient airflow to front bedroom

hvac

I have a Bryant CNPV3017ALAAAAA furnace. There is a 28' duct run to a front bedroom that does not provide sufficient airflow in either heat or much more noticeably in cooling mode.

On the furnace board the blue wire is on heat and the grey wire is on cool.

Could I switch the blue wire to the orange wire to provide more heated airflow during the heating season and switch the grey wire to the black wire on the cool terminal during the cooling season?

Or could anyone recommend an inline duct boost fan.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Raising fan speeds during heating season can be counter productive. Shutting vents off does not mean more air will flow as we desire. In most instance power consumption increases. The best option is to increase duct size for a significate portion of the run if the duct was properly sized to begin with. Duct runs should never run over 25 feet remaining the same size. Duct runs generally should be limited to no more than 20 linear feet. A 100 square foot room generally will need a 6" duct.
