Have you done anything to do with the coolant system lately?

Check the coolant level first of all!

 

If that's OK the thermostat might be stuck open. Presumably it doesn't have a temp gauge?

Sounds like a sludged up and blocked heater matrix . With the engine hot feel the 2 pipes going into the bulkhead , one will probably be hot and the other cooler as the water is not circulating .If you do change it break the old one apart and it will be full of rusty crud .

As said check the coolant level first and bleed any air out .
