Well, if you used the stock type of control valve that Lynn was talking about to
regulate the temp, then an emergency shut off valve in the other side should do
the trick??
How often do heater hoses and cores rupture inside the passenger
compartment of cars anyway? If you were going to try and isolate the
entire hose/core system, you would have to install valves in the engine block
and water pump housing. That is not impossible, but difficult in my
installation.

[FlyRotary] Heater valve
Same Valve I installed over 15 years ago
– works fine with a pull cable. But, again if you do not have the
means for shutting off the coolant flow in both hoses, a leak in your system
will end up dripping into your cockpit. OR you at least need a
check-valve in the out-flow line to keep coolant from coming back in that way.
OR am I missing something – everyone
seems focused on only one valve?

I used something like this for controlling my heater water flow:
