We have a fire ring with a hood above which has a 12" dia. stack one ft. high. Hood has a rim and is tapered at 30 degrees toward the center. Dia. of ring is 54", dia of hood is 64". Question is how can we obtain a better draft to get more smoke up the stack. Hood is 48" above fire ring. We also installed sheet metal around 50% of side for wind blockage.
