Proper attic ventilation – GreenBuildingAdvisor

We have recently developed an issue in our vented attic where we have condensation and mold beneath the insulation, on top of the ceiling drywall. It’s soaking wet. There’s 3000 sq ft of attic space and it’s kind of chopped up from additions over the years. We have powered attic fans in each section to pull air from the soffit vents. I would like to know what I can do to stop this from happening. Do I possibly need more ventilation?

I feel lost. I’ve had two mold remediation companies out and one had no ideas about the attic and the other thought I needed to add more fans and pump air from the living space in there. From what I’ve read that seems like a terrible idea. One of the guys had a moisture meter and it read 80% relative humidity in the attic and it’s only 47% outside. Please help! I need some ideas. A real solution. 

Thank You,
