slide in stove with quartz countertops

8 years ago

have you have any issues with the heat from stove on the counter? I heard quartz expose to extreme heat can be damaged, and I bought the same type of range and I am also considering quartz for the counter. Thanks in advance for any help.

You are right that it's not recommended to subject quartz to extreme heat, it can damage the countertop. The minimal heat that you get from the side of the stove/cook top isn't going to damage it, but I would not suggest sliding hot pots/pans from the cook top directly onto it-use a pot holder or trivot. My clients haven't had any problems.
