84.04°dH

That's 5× as hard as very hard water — nothing on our list beats it. That is very hard water: descaling becomes a regular chore.

What it means

How hard is that water?

All scales measure the same thing, calcium carbonate content, just with different sized degrees.

The math

How to convert °fH to °dH

To convert French degrees to German degrees, multiply by 0.560287.

Example: 150 °fH × 0.560287 = 84.043 °dH.

In the other direction, 1 °dH = 1.7848 °fH.
