As the wind passes down the top of the external parts it creates a wind flow that exhausts the smoke and fumes out of the lower exits. H cowls are another popular form of chimney cowl. The traditional h cowl is designed to ensure that no matter what the wind direction or strength the flue or chimney is protected from downdraught. 3 3 out of 5 stars 8.
