First, is the thermostat in he correct position for cooling? Is there a red light glowing on the thermostat? There could have been a power surge or outage and the heat pump needs to reset. Turn the power off to the heat pump at the control panel for a couple or minutes then back on again to reset the heat pump.

Why is the heat and air system only working on emergency heat?

when running the heat-pump the air blowing from the heat ducts is not hot ( it's to cold for the heat-pump). you have a main furnace and it won't turn on ( is thermostat selected for this source), ( is the power switch for main furnace on ), ( is fuse for this furnace good). If these are good (check thermostat wiring at thermostat, and transformer).

The thermostat turns on the heat pump and indoor fan. If an electrical sub circuit to or within the heat pump fails or locks out the heat pump, the outdoor part will not turn on.

To heat pool do you turn on pool pump first then heater?

If you want to heat your pool you first have to turn on the pump because nothing works without the pump running. You will not get filtration, circulation or heat. Turn on the pump set the thermostat to desired temp range. If you are starting with a water temp of about 55 degrees more or less, you will want to run the pump non stop until you achieve a temp near your desired goal. -- Quicker recovery time with this method is achieved rather than running the pump a few hours then shutting it down until the next day etc. k

A thermostat does nothing to prevent the loss of heat. That's the job of insulation. All the thermostat knows is to turn the heater on when the temperature drops below some number.
