Default Civic heater problem-doesn't blow hot air

I have a 99 Honda civic lx. On sat night I was out in arundel mills,md and on my way back home it was chilly so I put on my heater because I was with someone and they were cold so I put on my heater and cool air was coming out but I thought it was just becas the car is warming up again but I realized that it wasn't blowing hot air out at all. It was a cold ride home. I have no idea why this is happening. Need some ideas on where to start so I could have so heat.

Did you charge your VTEC?

Sometimes you just need to take out the heater core and flush it. I did that to my car and it was substantially better.

did you check to make sure there is enough coolant, or did you bleed any air out of the cooling system? check to see if the 2 hoses going into the firewall are warm/hot if they are then may be a problem with a stuck blend door or broken cable to the door that allows the warm coolant into the heater core. I had a similar problem on my 93 civic, so things may be different on your 99 civic.
