We have a similar pump house here in mid-Georgia, i.e. about 16' x 24' x 12', metal roof with vinyl siding. A single gable vent is more than enough venting. No problem with freezing nor heat.
Are your sure you should call this a pump house? Sounds like a large shed to me.

I initially thought I should install the vents so that the house could have some fresh air and if I have water vapor coming into the house thru the floor the vents would help the moisture escape but on the other hand the vents would pretty much negate any benefits of the insulation I have incorporated into the house. Anyone have any opinions on thei?
Thanks
There are no vents in my well house, and I’m concerned about the humidity there. I probably need to add them to make sure there’s air circulation. But I have to think about how to do that in the best way.
Dug well maybe? Not everyone has a drilled well.I don't know of anybody with a wellhouse around here. Is that a southern thing? What is in the house? Around here well pumps are submersible and all we have is a vented cap on the well pipe.
