Direct answer

For No Heat in Pacifica, start with the safest visible checks: thermostat settings, filter condition, obvious airflow blockage, and whether the issue matches this symptom: furnace running but blowing cold air. If the symptom returns or involves electrical, refrigerant, gas, water, or carbon monoxide risk, schedule a professional diagnosis instead of guessing at parts.
