sub panels

[phillyt]

I want to up the KWV to the electric heat for my home to add more heat output.
I have a 200 amp main panel and a 100 amp sub panel.
The increased electric heat would require 100 amps alone and would be coming off of the 100 amp sub panel.
Can I just put another sub panel in off of the main or will this be too many amps for the whole house ?
