What should you do if you have tiled tub surround and the faucet pipe is too short and you can put the faucet back on but it will just turn a couple of times and is not tight enough to prevent leaking?
Ecsimpson
Examine the pipe, you can probably turn it out using a pipe wrench, and replace the pipe with one that is 1/2 inch longer. Alternatively, if you can get a couple turns on the pipe, just wrap some Teflon tape around the pipe and see if that stops the leak.
AnswerI would change out nipple to longer one, and then get a new Delta spout with brass adap. When you install spout it will go back to tile all the way. I think if you added .5in. nipple it would make it to long, then it would not go to tile wall all the way. Or do the teflon tape around pipe and see what happens.ANS 3 - The piece of pipe sticking out of the wall is a 'nipple', unscrew it with a pipe wrench, measure it and get on 1/2 inch longer, put pipe compound or thread tape on the end and screw it into the fitting . Now re-fit your faucet.

What is causing low water pressure in house and pump to constantly buzz in a deep well?
I do not know your situation but a good guess is that your well pump is always on and is not getting enough pressure to shut off the pressure switch. So I would shut off the power to your well pump and see if the buzzing stops and if it does then I would replace your well pump. If the buzzing don't stop with pump shut off then it could still be your well pump check valve slowly leaking threw but I think its your pump because its not pumping enough to shut off with or with out a bad check valve.

When you use a tampon and go swimming should water get in it does it mean its not far enough in please help?
Tampons can absorb water when you go swimming, the vaginal walls will typically close on themselves so surround the tampon to prevent it absorbing water, but that's not always the case - as long as you can't feel the tampon as you sit or move about it is inserted far enough. You may want to consider using menstrual cups, these are internal like tampons but aren't absorbent so don't absorb water and they have light suction so they prevent any leaking.
