Is it okay to put hot pans on granite?

• <div><p>Yes, you can put hot pans on your granite surface without worrying about cracking. This durable, heat-resistant stone can handle temperatures over 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. However, it’s still good practice to use a pot trivet. There’s a risk that leaving a hot pot on a granite countertop for long periods can cause discoloration. Also, the pot can heat the granite, and an unsuspecting family member could burn their hand if they place it on the surface soon after the pot is removed.</p></div>

How often should I seal my granite countertops?

• <div><p>The best practice is to reseal the counters every few months or at least once a year, depending on how much traffic your kitchen gets. If you’re handy, you can learn <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-seal-granite-countertop.htm">how to seal granite countertops</a> or leave it to the pros if you want peace of mind that it is done correctly. </p></div>

What can damage granite countertops?

• <div><p>Acid can seriously damage granite countertops and lead to etching and erosion. This is why cleaning with vinegar isn’t recommended. Other acidic items that you should keep away from your granite countertops include:</p><ul><li><p>Citrus</p></li><li><p>Acetone nail polish remover</p></li><li><p>Tomatoes</p></li><li><p>Ammonia</p></li></ul><p>In addition, always steer clear of using bleach on or around your granite as it will degrade the countertop’s sealant quickly.</p></div>
