I have well water and the water is hard. Its stains my showers an orangish color and is difficult to clean. Any and all advice would be great.

You should have a backwashing iron filter. There are various types. Do you have symptoms of anything else, such as sulfur smell? Some will handle more than one thing. We are talking $1000 to $3000 probably depending on things.

You should measure the level of iron in your water with a water test that checks for that and ideally other things.
