George,
They have a meter which measures total hardness up to 750 mg/liter. It is 
described as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total hardness, that is presence of magnesium and calcium, is due mainly to 
the run-off water dissolving these salts as it flows or filters through 
different strata. Hardness can also be caused by corrosion of pipes in 
cooling and heating systems, as well as due to reverse osmosis and 
demineralization plants. The Hanna hardness meter, HI 93735, measures total 
hardness in three different scales: 0 to 250, 200 to 500 and 400 to 750 ppm, 
covering an extensive range of applications. With HI 93735 hardness can be 
measured in ppm (mg/L) as well as in French (°fH), German (°dH) and English 
hardness (°eH). The reading is expressed directly in ppm and it is not 
necessary to use conversion tables and diagrams for interpretation. The 
reagents for this instrument are available in powder as well as in liquid 
forms.
Specifications:
     Range:                 0 to 250 mg/L; 200 to 500 mg/L; 400 to 750 mg/L
     Accuracy:              ±5 mg/L or ±4% of reading (0 to 250 mg/L);
                            ±7 mg/L or ±3% (200 to 500 mg/L); 
                        ±10 mg/L or ±2% (400 to 750 mg/L)

Costs $149
