Good Directions: Wood Kent Cupola, 14 Sq x 18 H

The Good Directions Wood Kent Cupolas: About the Wood
Only hand-selected northern white pine is good enough for this line of popular cupolas. Combining Old-World craftsmanship with modern construction methods, they add an authentic rustic elegance to any building. They are available in a natural, untreated wood finish which, if you choose to, can be painted or stained to match the exterior of your home.

The Good Directions Wood Kent Cupolas: About the Roof
The Wooden Roof of the Kent Cupola is both visually appealing and structurally sound. The roof is made from hand selected Northern White Pine, so the roof will age beautifully over time. Supporting the roof, is a wooden base treated to withstand moisture, rotting, and insect damage.

The Good Directions Wood Kent Cupolas: About the Mid-Section
The mid-section of the Kent Wood cupolas features a Louvered ventilation system. The horizontal and vertical slats are angled to admit light and air, but to keep out rain and direct sunshine.

The Good Directions Wood Kent Cupolas: About the Base
The Smooth Wood Base of the Kent Cupola offers simplicity and functionality. The base is designed to accept a 10/12 pitch (10” rise per foot). However if the roof pitch is steeper than a 10/12 pitch, you will need to order the available extension base. For example, up to a 12/12 roof pitch, 1 Extension Base is needed, while up to a 14/12 roof pitch, 2 Extension Bases are required. The product includes all instructions and hardware needed for easy installation.

The Good Directions Wood Kent Cupolas: Attaching a Weathervane or Finial
The Kent Cupola is weathervane or finial ready. The top of the cupola has a hole, which can accept up to a 1” weathervane or finial post. Inside the roof, a bracket attaches the post to the cupola for additional fortification.

The Good Directions Wood Kent Cupolas: What Size is Right for Your Home
When selecting the right size Cupola for your home or business, there is a good rule of thumb to follow; use 1.5 inches of cupola for every foot of unbroken roofline. For example, if a roof section measures 24 feet, the minimum cupola size should be approximately 36 inches square. For a more dramatic effect, or if a cupola larger than 60 inches square is needed, consider using two cupolas on the roofline. Should you choose to use two cupolas, the rule of thumb changes to one (1) inch of cupola for every foot of unbroken roofline. For example, if a roof section measures 24 feet, the minimum size of each cupola should be approximately 24 inches square. These beautiful Wood Kent Cupolas come in the following sizes:
