The recirculating pump has no affect on other houses. It only pumps water from your water heater through the hot water piping inside your house and returns it to the water heater. The purpose is to prevent hot water from sitting in the pipes and cooling down. So, when you turn on the shower, the water in the pipe is already hot. I'm not a big proponent of recirculating pumps, but it does allow the shower water to be hot faster than if you don't have a pump.
