I forgot to ask what type of car that you have, but just to clear something up, 80% of modernish style cars do not have a heater tap, they run an isolation flap within the heater box, so regardless of whether it is on hot or not wont make a shit of difference.

Just remember that un-evacuated air will not always show up as a running hot situation. In many cases the air lock has been too big to have bled away through the bleed valve in the thermostat, and it just traps in the block or the cylinder head causing a cavitational effect which will eventually be a failure of any give component within your engine.
