They also often don't actually vent externally, they just cycle the air through a mesh (and maybe a carbon) filter and exhaust it back into the room.

That’s a requirement if you build European energy grade A+++ house (which is a minimum in LT) - can’t just be pulling warm air out and replacing with cold one (idk maybe an HRV can compensate for it).

I think HRV is also mandatory (plenty of old homes are retrofitted too).
