[QUOTE="mga, post: 1345702, member: 10757"] just an FYI.....ridge vents should only be used in conjunction with soffit vents....not gable vents. the theory behind ridge vents is to allow warm air to rise up and out, while drawing cooler air thru the soffit vents...like convection. the theory behind gable vents is to allow the attic to breathe....like lungs...as the wind blows in different directions. like [B]ericjeeper[/B] said, you obviously have warm air rising up into the chase. it's also a sign of heat loss.
