Description
Gusty Cape days can push smoke back down a flue, and the 230mm slimline storm cowl is made to stop that. It sits on the top of a 230mm insulated (double skin) flue and lets smoke escape while shielding the opening from wind. The slimline profile keeps the roofline tidy.

Why a storm cowl helps
A plain flue top is open to every gust. A storm cowl breaks up the wind so the fire keeps drawing evenly. That matters in exposed suburbs, on hills and near tall trees or buildings. Browse other sizes in our slimline storm cowl range or the full cowls section.
Fitting note
This end piece is for double skin flue only. Single skin pipe needs a different cowl. Our chimney cowl installation team can fit it safely and check that your flue clears the roof by the right height.
How do I know what size cowl I need?
Measure the outside of the flue at the top, or check the flue size listed for your fireplace. A double skin pipe sized 230mm on the inner liner takes this end piece. If you are unsure, send us a photo of the flue top and the fireplace model, and we will confirm the match before you order so there is no wasted trip up the roof.
Is a slimline cowl as good as a standard storm cowl?
Both do the same job. The slimline version is simply more compact, which many homeowners prefer for a cleaner look on the roof.
