We have a square chimney stack with a square chimney pot and want to fit a cowl to prevent backdraught but all the cowls out there seem to be for round chimney pots... Anyone come across this problem before and able to help please?

Thank you - yes we looked at these but our chimney pot has internal dimension of 7" - hence our problem
