There are several ways. From ancient times, we would have a fire in the fireplace, and the heat of the fire would warm the room. Many modern fireplaces have heat exchangers that run air through pipes in the back of the fireplace to blow hot air into the house without allowing smoke to get into the house.
In Roman times, some wealthy people's houses had a "hypocaust"; a fireplace would blow hot air through passages underneath the floor. This heated the entire building, without the need to have fireplaces in every room.
In the 1800s and 1900s, many houses and especially apartment buildings were heated with coal or oil-fired boilers and hot water running through pipes in the walls, connected to metal radiators in each room. (If air bubbles became trapped in the hot water pipes, it could cause all kinds of bangs, rattles and noises, which could echo throughout the building!)
In modern times, many houses are heated by natural gas, with hot air being forced through metal ducts in the attic. Since it is also easy to connect your air cooling mechanism to this, it is often referred to as "central heating and air conditioning".
