Did you use new thermostat? Is the hose connected to control your heat hose coolant flow? I would see if heater hoses getting warm and make sure the air pump to control blend door is working. Would also check if controls functioning properly and not going into default?

If it was going to default he would have defrost and heat comming off that - yes it can hurt your engine if head gasket or heads or gone eventually cook your block = new engine
