I have hard water staining (iron) bad smells and pH is low What do I need
This is a fairly typical situation seen in well water systems. It is a combination of problems that can easly be treated. Most of all you will want to try and fix your problems with as little upkeep as possible.
So lets look at this example.
To Treat The Hard WaterYou will want a Water Softener to get rid of that hardness.
You will want to start here and read how a softener works and how to chose the right one.
How to select a softener
We also have a Water Softener calculator here

Most people end out with the 5600 series Meter based softener.
The calculator will tell you the size and why, there are about 5 or 6 choices of the 5600. The 5600 is durable and trouble free for up to 15 years.
The 5600 meter driven controller will self adjust as usage changes and will regenerate only when you have used its capacity.
The timer systems are prone to wasting salt or running hard if you do not constantly adjust them to be efficient. We usually always recommend chosing the meter based system when possible.

For Bad Smell and IronThe Terminator system does pretty good. It basically is an oxidizer that attacks the compounds allowing them to be filtered in a special birm media. It also has an air injector to help increase the oxygen.
The low pH can be treated with a granular chemical called Calcite. The Terminator plus system deals with iron and hydrogen sulfide.
Here is some info on that.
