Stainless Steel Sinks vs. Fireclay Sinks

2022-08-29 13:42:10
Apart from stainless steel sink, fireclay sink is also one of the most popular types of sinks for kitchens. There is something in common between a stainless steel sink and fireclay sink. Both stainless steel sink and fireclay sink are durable and they may come in various styles and prices. However, there are many points that set the two types of sinks apart. For example, a stainless steel sink is usually lighter than a fireclay sink. Stainless steel sinks are quite common in our daily lives and they are discussed quite often. Today, I’d like to share something more about fireclay sinks.

How is a fireclay sink made?
A fireclay sink is made of fireclay, which is a special clay that has gone through extremely high temperature. It’s easy to confuse a fireclay sink and a porcelain sink. In fact, there are some differences between them. Fireclay comes out of a higher temperature than porcelain. Therefore, a fireclay sink is more durable than a porcelain sink. And porcelain sinks are relatively easier to chip, discoloration, and scratch.

How to install a fireclay sink?
Like other kinds of sinks, a fireclay sink can be installed in an under-mount, top-mount or even flush-mounted way. However, one thing that you need to pay attention to is that fireclay sinks are relatively heavy. Therefore, you need to be sure that your counter is tough enough to hold the fireclay sink no matter which way of installation will you choose.

How to care for a fireclay sink?
Just as I mentioned before, fireclay sink is quite durable. The daily maintenance and care of a fireclay sink are easy to deal with, just the same as normal sinks. Wash the sink after each use. Avoid hard stuff when wiping it. If there is stubborn dirt, wipe it using mildly abrasive cleaners and baking soda. Besides, it is recommended that you prepare a sink grid, which will offer protection for the sink.
