Selecting a cupola for your home isn’t the easiest task. However, there are many resourceful articles online that can provide you some great tips for finding the best cupola for your home.

I found several articles offering cupola tips on a great article site, Ezine Articles. I’ve included some summary notes from each article below. Hopefully you find these articles helpful if you are setting out to choose a cupola for your roof.

From the article “10 Tips For Choosing a Cupola“:

Before you get ready to order a cupola, make sure you know the pitch of your roof. Also, you should probably try to factor in at least a few inches of clearance.

From the article “A Great Accent To Show Your Individuality“:

Since they fashion the tops of buildings and structures, cupolas are made of the finest weather resistant materials available.

Obviously, the presence of a weathervane is an important part of the design of a cupola. This article “Displaying A Special Weathervane“

Because of many people’s desire for an attractive location to display their weathervane, they still exist today in a decorative form and do not necessarily incorporate the air-ventilation openings that were once required.

Elda Titus wrote one of my favorite cupola tips articles on Ezine, titled “How to Choose the Size of Cupola to Create Curb Appeal.” One awesome piece of advice she provides in her article:

Be careful about purchasing a cupola without consideration of the size of the base in proportion to the building size.
