Default Another RO question...

I currently water my small collection of orchids with distilled water. My tap water comes from a well and is extremely hard. I especially have a problem with iron. I get rust everywhere and have to clean it every few days off of the shower walls, toilets etc. With the amount of rust in my water not even a simple water softener (which I don't have) can get rid of it. So my question is, if I get a RO unit will that take the iron completely out of the water? And will I have to worry about the iron eventually ruining the unit? The Culligan guy says that with my water even hot water tanks don't last for long. This may be a dumb question but I don't know much about these things. I was hoping one of you RO experts could help me out.
