Yes. With no hot water circulating, the heater coil/exchanger will quickly cool down to ambient temperature and the fan will blow cold air into the cabin.

What pump moves hot water?

The pump that moves hot water through a hot water heater is the recirculation pump. This pump moves the water through the heater and back through the intake line.


Why is your 2004 ford focus oil temperature increasing and the engine temperature increasing and my heat stopped working when it is very cold outside?

From your description of the symptoms it sounds as if the water pump has failed. No water pump equals: no coolant water circulatiing in the engine to keep it cool as well as no water circulating through the interior heater.


Why would heater blow only cold air on 1985 delta 88?

It could be like my 95 F250. The fan tips on the water pump were rusted off. It would keep the engine cool but the pump could not push water up to the heater. Replace water pump. Took me 2 hrs to replace water pump and 100.00.

How do you fix heater on 2004 Chevrolet venture?

Check to make sure that the engine coolant is full. The thermostat must be working properly as well as the water pump. The hoses going to the heater core should be warm from the water if the climate control is working on the heat side.

Would the water pump cause low heat from heater?

a bad water pump could cause low heat. The heater uses the coolant from the pump to generate heat.

I have found the common causes for this are, a plugged heater core, and a poorly working water pump. The radiator could also be plugged.
