The water for the house has nothing to do with hot water or steam heat. It will work regardless of the water being on or not.

Can you use a bladder pressure tank even though the bladder is leaking?

If your bladder is damage in any way, your boiler will run but you will have other problems.If your expansion tank is not working, you will be seeing water leaking out of the Pressure Relief Valve when pressure gets around 30psi (most residential boilers). The water may stop dripping when the boiler reaches its highest temperature, but once the boiler starts cooling down, water will start contracting causing low pressure. This will cause the automatic fill valve to let water back into the boiler thus making the water drip out the relief valve again when it heats up.DO NOT shut off the water inlet valve. This could cause high damage or seriously injury if you run out of water.You should replace the tank and also the relief valve to be safe. Call a licenced plumber.

How do you pipe a hot recirculation line?

Remove the boiler drain at the bottom of the water heater,and install a tee with the branch facing up. Replace the boiler drain! Above the tee is where you put the approved for pottable water pump,with the arrow pointing toward the tee.(you can put a shut off above and below the pump for servicing)From the top of the pump you now run a line to the farthest fixture,of a conventional water line system, and tee into the hot before any shutoff or fixture.(insulating the hot water lines would definitely save energy)If you are trying this on a home run (or header)system, you will have to run a separate line back from every fixture to an other header,and then to the top of the pump. P.S. Be sure you label the shut offs to make sure no one closes them when the pump is in operation.
