Heater only bows hot air

Hi,

My heater only blows hot air even if i change the setting to "Lo". When the heater is set to "off", hot air stills comes through and increases the faster the car is going once the engine is warm.

I changed the pollen filter but this has made no difference.

Any thoughts?

Cheers

My heater on my 2000 cdillac escalade will not blow hot air
The heater core may be plugged. After the vehicle is warmed up to operating temperature, feel both hoses (careful they may be hot) and see if they feel equally warm. If one is noticeably warmer than the other, your heater core is likely plugged.

ONLY WARM AIR FROM HEATER, REPLACED THERMOSTAT, STILL ONLY WARM AIR. UPPER RADIATOR HOSE & HEATER CORE HOSES ARE HOT.
The next possibility, if you haven't already thiught of it, is as simple as making sure there is enough water/antifreeze solution in your radiator. If the level is too low, your hoses will get hot, but there will not be enought water to circulate into your heater core.
