Thanks for the input! I really appreciate your experience here, and I need to give more details. This house doesn't have any soffet vents and none to add yet due to its original design and the cost involved. The original roof was removed last summer four static vents put (in where there were none before) on a roof with a 10/12 pitch. This is an older house with lathe and plaster throughout so very little insulation exists. Air movement through the attic is my primary concern at this time There was no ridge vent installed either, however this may be necessary at some time in the future as you advise. Cooling in Kansas is primary due to our climate, and any further input is still greatly appreciated.
