make sure the hoses at the heater core are both hot. if not, then the heater core may be clogged with dirt. if they are, it may be air in the system. also, if the car overheated, it could have a damaged head gasket which will produce air into the system

On heater hoses both are hot. So if in there is in system how to remove it.
So if head gasket is blown so is this a expense job.

keeping the engine at 2000 rpm for a minute will bleed the system of air.

yes, it is expensive, around 1200-1500
