Hope this makes sense!
Makes no sense to me. :h :?

If you were plugged into a 120v power source then you would not have a problem. You would run the heater directly off the shore power bypassing the inverter.
Seems like you are not hooked up to a power source , like 120v shore power and running your electric 120v heater is draining your two 12v batteries, because the heater is running off the inverter, draining the batteries. Is that what is happening ?
Are you attempting to LOOP your power from an outlet feeding from your inverter, then attempting to LOOP that 120v inverter power back into an inside power outlet as an "INPUT' power source to charge your batteries , so you can replenish what your heater is extracting from them ? If that's what you are trying to do, then NO, you can't do that.
