While inspecting the shower for other potential leak sources, I did notice that there is no caulking at the bottom of the shower where the wall surround connects to the shower pan.
Should this be caulked or is it designed to prevent water from entering this seam?
Thanks

The joint where the sides meet the pan SHOULD NOT NORMALLY need to be caulked, but, on mine the water simply sits on the pan and ran out the joint under the door surround. You have a curtain but the result is the same. You have to make the water stay in the pan, you may have to install a lip along the front of the pan, a weather strip so to speak.
