Stephenson Charleston Cupola

Cupolas are used primarily for ventilation in buildings with attics or tight upper levels. They sit on top of the roof and provide both a decorative and functional addition to the overall architectural value of the home. Consider the Charleston cupola when installing a cupola on your building or home.

Cupolas are typically divided into three parts: the base, the middle section and the roof. While cupolas come in a variety of sizes and shapes, the Charleston cupola is four sided. Its base has straight lines that reach toward the louvered section. The Charleston cupola’s louvers are framed by an arch edge. The “pagoda” style roof gives the Charleston cupola a unique look and feel.

When you decide upon a Charleston cupola, you can choose between several types of material for both the roof and the body. The Charleston cupola roof may be either copper or aluminum and, while copper is the most popular roof type, aluminum is attractive as well as slightly less expensive. The body is available in both cedar or vinyl to allow you to best match the siding of your home. The cedar is classically beautiful and a traditional choice while vinyl is long lasting, requiring little maintenance once installed.

No matter which type you choose, a Stephenson Charleston cupola is an excellent addition to almost any architectural style.
