Seeking pro

Seeking professional advice on what we should do with our water . Heard from water people that came out to quote that it’s one thing first (iron bacteria) then others said no it’s sulfur. I have my water results posted here and would love someone to give it a once over and recommend me a system that you would for your family. I heard the name terminox filter for a chemical free alternative and it looks great. The chemical systems are also highly recommended by the company’s coming to quote. I just feel like it might be overkill with our water ? Thank you
2nd pic is behind the toilet and third is the spacer stack inside the softener. That’s currently first in line then 2 big blues into the house.

The plan was to sanitize the well and the plumbing in the home then install a fresh chlorine injection system with softener. The lady my wife talked to said this (see voicemail) basically saying we don’t need to do that … opinions ?

2nd picture is the proposed plan minus the tank on the far left

Posting results of water test from leafhome water. Bacteria results coming soon but suspect clean just bad iron bacteria.

Still haven’t shocked / sanitized the well .

Picture is of our watersoftner and 2 big blues and a unplumbed iron breaker (must’ve broke or not worked)

My head‘s been spinning ever since I’ve been getting a bunch of conflicting information on what to do and how to improve my water situation. It’s smelly and that’s due to. They’re literally being no softener and no iron breaker or anything on the water right now.

First step is sanitization my driller warned me and he won’t even touch the faucets in the house. He said that that would clog up stuff.

I’m also hearing to go bigger go home use chlorinated bleach or no chlorinated tablets and let it soak for 8 to 8+ hours

Then on a system, I had a couple guys come talk to me and they said they would. The solution would be a chlorine injection system. This was called again and another local good reviews water purification company. That same guy also warned me that people would try to sell me anything and just take my money and run, but that this system would be the solution.

Then we had Leaf Home Water solutions come out and they did a test and they suggested a peroxide injection system. This was a little more favorable in my eyes.

Only due to the lack of the retention tank because it states online that peroxide reacts instantly and doesn’t need a retention tank .

I live in Central Florida Astatula to be specific

Please help

My current set up consists of a water softener, followed by two big blue 20 inch filters.

The water softener is giving an E2 error and that was because it was gunked up with a bunch of iron orange crap and sand looks like.

That big blue tank is from Centuri. It’s a labeled an iron and sulfur filter or whatever. It’s totally unplugged and looking at the back of it you can see the intake is really rusty in the outtake is a little less rusty. this is what one of the techs pointed out to me. He said that it didn’t get it all.

Ken from Quality Safe Water told me that Ken is also the same guy that told me that the chlorinated injection system was the only system that would be the solution for me. I’m starting to think he’s right.

I’ve got to get my well sanitized and my lady won’t let me do it myself . Big concern is the water heater . What do I need to make sure everything’s done the right way other than doing it myself 😅

My well driller that drilled my well said no to the faucets , only lets water in tank he said if it goes to the house a lot of things can get clogged.
