How is the temperature resistance of the Quartz Stone countertop?
The temperature resistance of quartz stone counter tops depends on specific brands and manufacturing processes, but overall, quartz stone countertops typically have the following characteristics and temperature resistance:
High temperature resistance: Quartz stone benchtops are usually able to withstand relatively high temperatures, typically up to 150 ° C (approximately 300 ° F). This means you can place hot pot, pan, or baking tray directly on a quartz stone counter top without causing immediate damage. However, prolonged or extreme high temperatures may cause surface discoloration or damage, so it is still recommended to use a hot plate pad to protect the quartz surface.
Temperature resistance: Quartz stone countertops typically have good temperature resistance, which means they can adapt relatively quickly to temperature changes without being prone to cracking or damage. This makes it very suitable for the kitchen environment, as there are often temperature fluctuations in the kitchen.
Avoid sudden temperature shock: Although quartz has good temperature resistance, it is best to avoid placing extremely hot items on the stove or frozen food in the refrigerator directly on the quartz stone benchtop to avoid causing sudden temperature shock. Excessive temperature changes may cause cracking.
Using a heat pad: To protect the surface of quartz, it is recommended to use a heat pad or rubber pad when placing hot items.
Manufacturer's advice: The most important thing is to follow the manufacturer's specific recommendations and maintenance guidelines, as different brands and products may have different temperature limits and usage recommendations.
Quartz stone countertops usually have good temperature resistance, but extreme high temperatures and temperature shocks should be handled with care during use to ensure that the countertop remains aesthetically pleasing and durable. Please carefully study and follow the manufacturer's guidelines to maximize the protection and maintenance of the quartz stone benchtop.
