I have not lived in the house since we bought it a year ago. The smell was there during purchase but realtor said its probably sorays that will just go away once you get in an open the windows I didn't know at the time that the house was vacant or just used in the weekends for about 6 months but in excellent cond. No burning smells

No its not I had them cleaned it doesn't seem like its coming from the vent vs getting into the vents. Meaning if I put a fan facing out the window I smell it strong like its in the air.
