Cupolas can be used as a decorative attic ventilation device or stylish decoration. Make sure to keep them leak free with flashing or by caulking the screws.
Ridge vents and soffit vents are a necessity to keep roof rot problems out of new homes. Houses release moisture into attics. Ridge attic vents remove wet air quickly.
