• My UPS's maximum load capacity is 1350 VA. If your heater is 1500 VA, then I think it would need a UPS that can handle the higher (1500 VA) load, possibly one that can handle up to 1800 VA to be safe. I would definitely ask a professional.

• My recommendation is to not try it as it will almost instantly overload the UPS because the amperage of the heater is higher than the rated output of the unit.

• Attempting to run a heater from a UPS would be an inappropriate use and the protections within the UPS would probably shut it down immediately. Way too much draw of current for something designed for electronics. Check out portable generators instead.
