How did Ships Keep Warm?

I’ve been watching the TV Show The Terror, and I was curious as to how ships in that era (1800s) were able to keep warm or at least insulated against extreme temperatures.

The Erebus and Terror had steam engines to supplement the sails and these same engines also circulated hot water to heat the ships
