Definitely. Many homeowners cover all attic louvers in winter in hopes of saving fuel. If the attic is properly insulated, this practice can only do harm. Because the indoor moisture penetrates ceilings, then condenses on the cool underside of the roof and can even form frost. If the attic were ventilated, moisture would be transferred to the outside air.
