How to choose the right size cupola. A good rule of thumb for selecting the right size cupola is to multiply 1.25 times every foot of unbroken roofline -- the key is the unbroken roofline measurement. When we say unbroken roof line what we mean is that there are no major objects (like a chimney) or hips or dips in the ridge line of the roof.
Cupola Sizing. To determine a proper size cupola for your roof, for every foot of your building roof line use 1.25 inch of cupola. Example: For a roof section that is 24 feet, the proper size cupola would be 30 inches. For buildings longer than 48 feet you should consider using multiple cupolas.
