It is estimated that everyone is familiar with quartz stone, it is an ideal countertop material. The processing and installation of quartz stone countertops is a technical activity. If the quartz stone is installed improperly, it will not only affect the appearance of the cabinet countertops, but also directly affect the overall quality and service life of the cabinet. So, how to process and install quartz stone countertops? Next, let's take a look with the editor of FABULOUS Group.

　　1. Connection port

　　In order to avoid cracking of the plate and obtain the best processing effect, the following factors must be considered in the selection of the connection part:

　　The connection port should avoid the position of the stove or the basin, and cannot be connected at the corner at 45o, and cannot be connected at the hole of the basin (the distance is not less than 80mm).

　　The position of the water basin is generally centered on the length of the water tank of the cabinet; the position of the cooker is generally centered on the hood.

　　2. Corner

　　In L-shaped and U-shaped cabinets, the countertop should be spliced ​​by more than two plates, and the splicing position should be at the corner. The processed one-piece solid block plate cannot be used, because the L-shaped solid block plate is easy to break under the action of thermal expansion and contraction or mechanical stress.

　　3. Hole and groove

　　Opening holes should be selected in the factory according to the measurement drawings as much as possible to reduce on-site openings; rounded corner openings are selected, the cracking rate is the lowest.

　　If the distance between the grooved part and the countertop joint is less than 150mm, the area needs to be supported and reinforced by wooden or artificial stone.

　　It is forbidden to cut the inner corners into right angles by cross cutting; when cutting, please use cold water tools to avoid cracks.

　　There should be a gap of 3-5mm around the pot hole to avoid cracking due to the small hole being squeezed, and at the same time to prepare for the need for later expansion processing.

　　4. End surface polishing

　　The on-site splicing place of the countertop must be polished in the same color as other parts, and polished at a uniform level; cold water tools must be used during polishing to prevent the plate from breaking due to heat, and manual polishing of the quartz stone surface is strictly prohibited.

　　5. Levelness

　　The floor cabinet must be level, the upper and lower error is less than 1.5MM, and the full backing plate must be firmly padded to ensure the same level and no deformation. There can be no overhead between the countertop and the cabinet. If there is no cabinet, it must be supported at the overhead; the level of the overall cabinet is required: the absolute value of the adjacent two points is ≤0.5mm, and the overall absolute value is ≤3 mm.
