So it creates positive pressure in the house?

The air that is brought in from outside via the intake hose is the same air that is heated and then ejected through the exhaust hose.
In theory, it shouldn’t cause a change in pressure.

So no cold air is being blown into the house?

Outside air. If you are using AC, the intake probably isn’t cold. But: air in => heated up by the AC => sent out.
2 hoses in the window that connect to the back of the AC unit.

Oh I haven’t seen one of those yet, that does sound like an improvement.
