As the title says I would like to know what exactly the boiling point change is between soft water (<80ppm) and hard water (it doesn’t really matter what ppm just as long as the ppm is given).

I am currently conducting an experiment to test the difference in properties between soft, hard and very hard water. Unfortunately as this is part of a year 11 test we were unable to procure very hard water so I have to use theoretical results. I have attempted to find a more exact statistic regarding the correlation between a water samples higher ppm and it's higher boiling point but have been unable to find anything more than a general agreement that there is a correlation. If anyone has an exact or semi-exact number regarding how much the temperature increases for a water sample with 200ppm that would be fantastic. If someone has a similar figure for a different ppm that would be equally helpful.

Have you tried to calculate this? 
Even for very very hard water the increase in boiling point is going to be much less than 0.1°C.

I'm happy to calculate it and did attempt to do so I'm just not exactly sure where to start as I don't really have any point of reference. It did occur to me while writing this that I may be able to use the boiling point of sea water and find the increase in boiling point from there by calculating how many ppm cause a degree of difference.

Note that you won't get a single, simple answer, as there is no simple relationship between water hardness and solution composition. Solutions containing 2.6 g of dissolved CaSO₄ per 1 L and 1.8 g of MgCl₂ per liter have the same hardness, but different boiling points because of different van 't Hoff factors.
