Yes. I got a Taurus 93 and has the same. Very poor heating air inside the car in the morning. Also the temp gauge was always at the very firs line at the bottom. Solution: my mechanic changed the Thermostat. And the problem was gone ... by the coolant :-) Explanation: a bad or failed Thermostat is always in "open". So the water circulate freely and getting colder every moment when pass troght the radiator. A good thermostat only let pass a little part of the water when the engine is cold - in other words it works almost "close".

Where is the thermostat on a 1997 Ford Taurus?
I am not completely familiar with the Taurus, but if you follow the top radiator hose (thick one) back to the engine block, the housing should be located at the point where this hose meets the block. The thermostat is located here inside the Thermostat Housing.
Why would both fans on a 1997 Ford Taurus run all the time and would this cause no heat?
you may have an overcooling problem. check your thermostat and temperature switch. the thermostat regulates fluid in and out of the radiator, and the switch tells the fans to come on to cool the engine.
