Has anyone installed ventilation exhaust fans in their house, or does anyone know what to consider when looking into a home ventilation system? Also, has anyone installed a ridge vent along with soffit vents to let the trapped heat out of the roof?

These work well. No power needed.
If you don't have an outdoor kitchen for that fish, bro, you're way behind the 8 ball ..
Always look for passive cooling using convection. If you install solar, remember the panels act like a tropical roof and shade the house, while you use the power for aircon
I have a brushless 6-inch inline fan that pulls air through the space between my insulated ceiling and metal roof and exhausts it outside. It has a temperature sensor, so it starts automatically at a set temperature.
I did a full ridge and soffit vent system calculated to the US IBC… though I had to order the ridge vents myself, since the local roofers in both Pangasinan and Dinagat had never used them. For airflow inside, I just put oversized ceiling fans in every room and big American-style windows… not the Philippine sliding-screen kind that doesn't even keep out lizards
