You might see a reduction in cooling costs. Ridge vents will vent the attic more thoroughly, but only work as well as the amount of air intake you have through the soffits.

You also want to make sure you have adequate attic insulation or you could end up paying more in the winter for heating costs due to heat loss due to an improved ventilation system.

Or maybe you guys in Texas don't have heating costs in the winter:}

A roof CAN be your friend
