A/C problems
why does this thang blow hot air out of the a/c until you get to movin seems to cool fine while you are in motion but as soon as you stop here comes hot air. the compressor is still in lock up mode fan is running there is just a temp change just doesn't seem right? I just replaced a/c system last year dew to a bad a/c comp. 03 f250 6.0 crew 4x4

You say you did, or had or had the a/c re-done. Are you sure the proper amount of refrigerant was put back into it? The only way to know is to put a set of gauges on it.
My truck doesn't even have a heater shut-off valve. The valve only closes when the a/c is on Max. So it should still blow cold regardless of the valve.

After checking for leaks I ended up poping out the orifus filter and it was clogged. Sounds like the same issue I was having.
