Make An Eco Friendly Style Statement With A Copper Cupola

by guestpost on August 25, 2009

Adding a copper cupola to the roof of your house can change the way it looks and add an element of distinctive character to it. Most people appreciate that. But a copper cupola being environmentally friendly? Yes they are. Cupolas were initially created to improve the circulation in a house where hot air rises and collect at the top. Cupolas allow this heat to escape. A well designed modern copper cupola serves the same purpose and with proper insulation, it can reduce the cooling needs of the house and thus cut back on the energy consumption.  Just make sure it is installed properly to prevent rain from entering and needless heat loss in winter.
