Is quartz countertop heat resistant ?

Composition and Thermal Resistance Quartz

 

countertops are made from natural quartz, polymer resin, and other additives. Although natural quartz is extremely heat resistant, the resin used in quartz countertop fabrication can be sensitive to high temperatures. The resin can degrade or deform under the influence of heat, leading to permanent damage to the countertop surface.

Temperatures to Avoid It is recommended not to place hot pans directly on the surface of quartz countertops. Extreme temperatures, such as those generated by pans freshly removed from the fire or oven, can cause irreversible damage. It is advisable to use thermal coasters or trivets to protect the countertop surface from high temperatures.

Precautions to Take Always use coasters or thermal trivets to protect the surface of quartz countertops from direct heat. Avoid placing hot cooking appliances directly on the quartz countertop. Do not pour hot liquids directly onto the countertop surface; instead, use insulating mats or supports for hot containers. Avoid rapid temperature fluctuations, as this can stress the quartz countertop surface and potentially cause fissures.

Maintenance and Care To extend the lifespan of your quartz countertop and prevent heat-related damage, it is essential to follow the manufacturer's recommendations for maintenance and care. Regularly clean the countertop surface with a soft cloth and mild cleaner to remove residue and prevent the accumulation of dirt that could potentially worsen heat-related damage.

In conclusion, while quartz countertops offer many advantages, it is important to remember that they can be sensitive to heat. By taking appropriate precautions and following maintenance advice, you can preserve the beauty and integrity of your quartz countertop for years to come.
