Its a whole house air exchanger. They are now standard in all new homes, I believe even in the building code.
It takes exaust from several ports in the house and passes it through a core in the exchanger on the way outside. Fresh incoming air also passes through the core. This exchange warms the incoming air somewhat, removing the heat from the warm outgoing air. This saves heat, instead of just a straight exaust, like a bathroom fan.
I will try find a website for you if you wish. I believe my Lifebreath is manufactured in Saskatoon.
