How do you install a steel pipe union?
Start with one of the pipes you are connecting together. I usually start with the female half of the union. The half that has the nut on it. Slide the nut over the pipe first so you don't forget it. Use pipe dope or teflon tape on the threads of the pipe. Screw on the female half of the union and tighten it with two pipe wrenches, holding the pipe with one of them. Put the other half of the union on the second piece of pipe you are connecting and tighten it. Now bring the two halves of the union together and screw on the union nut. Do not put any pipe dope or tape on the union itself. It is a dry fit. Tighten the nut while holding the male half of the union. The second half of the union. -- I always put pipe dope on the union, it helps the union tighten more and it helps keep the threads from corroding together over time, making taking it appart easier.
What direction should a pipe union be installed?

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?
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 the correct way to apply Teflon tape to a threaded piece of steel pipe?
First, make sure the pipe threads are clean and in good condition. Hold the end of the tape flat against the pipe threads, flush with the end of the pipe, then turn the pipe clockwise, or as though you were tightening it. Put 1-1/2 to 2 turns of tape on the pipe, keeping the tape flat and tight against the pipe as you turn, then thread the pipe immediately into the fitting. The reason for doing it this way is so the loose end gets pinned down by the action of screwing the pipe in, rather than getting flipped up.
