Does the engine reach normal operating temp? Does the blower motor? Are the heater hoses hot? Maybe a thermostat issue?

the engine reaches normal operating temperature, do not know what you mean by "does the blower motor". where would I find the heater hoses on my car, and how would I know for sure if it was a thermostat issue other than bringing it to a mechanic

I meant does the hvac blower motor run, does it blow air? Sorry about the late reply, all my email went to spam for some reason. Where applicable the heater hoses carry hot water to and from the heater core.
