Cupolas
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The history of cupolas can be traced back to the 8th century where weather shields were placed over minarets to allow venting while keeping the weather out. The high ceilings and opened windows proved to be the best way to air the structures out.

Cupolas provide a natural flow of warm, moist air in an upward direction through the louvered sides of the cupola. This flow of air helps eliminate wood rot, mildew, peeling paint and musty odours by flushing out moisture. It is estimated that as many as 75% of the homes built in the last 20 years are not ventilated properly. Our cupolas serve as an essential and efficient means of ventilation.

Cupolas are hand crafted units shipped ready to install. Our units include skirt flashing and roof template for easy installation. Our expertise along with your ideas can make your functional and purposeful venting cupola a handsome structure of personal reflection and elegance, while adding a decorative and eyecatching look to your home, garage or building.
