Outside Vent Visor

[msmith134]

The previous owners of my house have used a vent to pass through lots of pipes such as bath waste water, that then run down next to a drain pipe of the external wall into the drain.

The issue I have is that the rain water is getting through the vent and into the kitchen behind the plaster boards due to the pipes existing and I want to know if there is such an item as a "vent visor" that I can put over the vent that works like an umbrella to stop the rain coming in.

Your help is very much appreciated.

is this what you're looking for?

That was exactly what I originally considered. The issue is that I need it to be a lot bigger and without the rear moulding where the pipe would come into the fitting.

Any idea where I could get one a lot bigger and do you think I could successfully cut off the rear moulding section?
