The closest Sherwin-Williams paint to Vista Paint Tropical Heat (1082) is Positive Red SW 6871, a delta-E of 6.92 away — the closest Sherwin-Williams has, and far enough away that you should sample it before committing.
Positive Red is 5.1 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as red against red, at chroma 58.7 and 58.5.
Codes are not transferable between manufacturers and no brand publishes a conversion table, so every figure here is measured from the published hex values rather than taken from a chart.
