Did you have a Due Diligence period and a formal inspection? Did the Seller dislcose on the Seller's Real Property Disclosure Statement of any problems relating to HVAC? Did you use a Realtor? Curious why your realtor is not involved... If your inspector did not advise you of age or condition concerns and Seller stated nothing about it on the state required Seller's Real Property Disclosure Statement, and you did not address any concerns prior to closing and signing final walk through before closing than you may not have any recourse. If you find evidence via a HVAC Company that was consulted, Home Warranty or Insurance claim that Seller was notified or had knowledge of a defective HVAC and the Seller did not state it on their Seller's Real Property Disclosure Statement then you can revisit reclaimation from Seller. If Seller is deceptive or omits this knowledge and you can prove that they knew then you can take action. Here is a link explaining more about why this form is so important. Consult with a Real Estate Attorney for specific action possible. https://q-law.com/q-law-articles/oregons-seller-property-disclosure-law/
