Houses in Chepel and the surrounding villages all consist of one piece which is used for living, sleeping and cooking. Until 2018 most of the houses had open fireplaces in their house, which meant that the houses were totally black inside due to the smoke and the smoke of course massively affected the inhabitant`s pulmonary health. Besides, especially little children often suffered from burn injuries after falling into the fire while playing. So did women whose dresses caught fire while cooking. Thus, those somkeless stoves, which have been provided to every household in Chepel, are a huge gain from a health perspective. With the stoves people can cook, heat and even have warm water.
