What is the age of the home? Some older homes used small pipes and after years the pipes can become partially blocked with mineral buildup. The vanity faucet distributes much less water than the tub. Note the outlet size of the vanity fauced versus the outlet size of the tub. If the flow rate is not available to the tub because of small pipes or other flow restriction the problem will show up as small flow rates at the larger faucets. Good luck, since increasing the flow rate can be expensive WHICHEVER problem it is. If your Plumbing to the tub is small, it will be expensive to replace. If the plumbing is blocked by mineral deposits, it will still be expensive.

Your water pipes in your bathtub make a howling noise. When you open the sink faucet it stops or if you wait long enough it stops on its own. How do you solve this problem?
Could be the washer vibrating in the bath faucet/mixer. Over time, washers can degrade and become floppy or develop a rough surface. High pressure water over the surface can act like air past a clarinet reed. Opening the sink faucet takes the water feed pressure off the bath faucet, stopping the vibration.

Why would the hot water side of the bath tub faucet cause the water line to vibrate when turned partially on?
AnswerIf you have the old style seats and washers type shower valve, the water is trying to squeeze between the seat and the washer. If it was air, it would whistle. Water hammers. Usually high pressure contributes to this effect. The only way to solve this problem is to replace your shower valve with a cartridge type shower valve. Or,reduce the pressure in your house.Or do like my wife told me to do. Our pipes in the bathroom sink have been vibrating for months now. We researched everything possible. She said " try turning up the valve a little". Guess what? it worked. Do the 'KISS' method.(Keep It Simple Stupid)
