Water Intrusion

Greetings, Does anyone know of a way to prevent water from intruding into the RV through the furnace vent. Twice now we have had water leak into the RV through the vent. It happens when the rain is being blown onto the side of the coach. I was thinking of a cover for the vent when the furnace is not in use. However, I did a quick search online and did not see such a product. Thanks in advance.
