					<description><![CDATA[To answer Karen, i came looking to see if i did my job correctly. I followed the instructions on a sliding shower door i bought at home depot. The instructions say not to caulk the inside bottom track - they dont say why... I&#039;ll assume that between the instructions and what you heard, that must be correct.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://homerepairgeek.com/bathtub-plumbing/bathroom-caulk/comment-page-1/#comment-751&quot;&gt;Karen Carman&lt;/a&gt;.

If you have a sliding shower door, you&#039;ll want to caulk underneath the rails in most cases, i.e. where they meet the shower pan. The rail itself should have &quot;weeping holes&quot; on the interior vertical lip for any accumulated water that drips down the doors to escape and seep back into the pan. If these holes don&#039;t exist, have been caulked over or are too small, you can always open them up with a metal drill bit until you see water draining quickly down the doors and through the weep holes.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Should there be a caulk line on the inside of a shower door on the bottom.  We were told that there needs to be an escape of water under the rail and that is why it wasn&#039;t caulked.]]></description>
