Kashering Countertops for Passover

Question

Good afternoon, How do you kasher countertops for Passover?

Answer

Hello, 

The proper way to kasher countertops is to thoroughly clean them, pour boiling water from a primary vessel [the vessel in which the water was heated] over the countertop, and then cover it. 

In cases where pouring is not possible [for example, there are types of countertops that are damaged by water], one can suffice with thorough cleaning and covering the surfaces.
