Fitting copper cupolas to the roof of your house does not only enhance its appearance, it adds to the ventilation and a significant improvement in the internal airflow of the home. Copper cupolas used with gable or dormer vents do not increase the heating or cooling costs but can actually reduce them. Of course, just as roofs are insulated, so too copper cupolas need proper insulating so as to reduce heat loss. Since secure fitting is essential to the life of the cupola, and to prevent any leakage, it is always safer to get one made for an exact fit to your roof rather than going in for a standard size.
