My upstairs shower is leaking and I think it is the drain. I have a Florestone shower pan but I need to find a diagram so I can replace the seal. Are there any replacement instructions available?

What model do you have? Here is a link to their installation Florestone :: Shower Stalls You may need to find your exact model and check that installation too. Their pans use what they call a Wedge Loc gasket which almost never ever leaks. Swanstone uses the same and they are so tight they are hard to install so I am guessing it could be something else. If the space below this shower has drywall ceiling it must come out so lets get up there to confirm what's really leaking. Back to you

"Think it's a model 4260F receptor. Opened up the sheetrock and it doesn't look like the drain is leaking. Can't tell where the water comes from. It only leaks when the shower is running, and the water runs along the top of the joist to a certain spot, and then runs down to the drywall. Can't determine the source. Don't think it is a supply problem, unless it is downstream of the Koeler on/off mixing valve traveling towards the shower head... unlikely?? Trying not to tear out too much ceiling. Hoping not to need to tear out walls. It'd be great if it were a seal problem. Will just keep looking at this point.

There are several steps we can follow to pin down the leak. First step, fill a bucket of water from another source and then dump the whole bucket onto the shower pan. If no leak its not the drain. Step 2 hold the bucket directly below the shower head to collect the water, then turn on the shower. If you get your leak its likely the mixing valve or shower arm. Back to you
