Followup on the previous question.

I am thinking of replacing the old standard tub with a whirlpool when
remodel the bathroom. *One of the contractor who estimated the entire
remodel would cost $12000 and about $2000 extra for whirlpool tub.

However, I am concerned about my well water. *The water is very hard
and the wall next to the bathtub usually turns orange in a few months
if not weeks. *And the pressure is very low.

How do I improve on the pressure and the quality of the water just
enough and how much would that cost me?

Thanks

Why didn't you ask the contractor? Low pressure could be anything
from the pressure switch setting which takes a turn of a screwdriver
to fix to old galvanized piping that needs to be replaced through the
whole house. Fixing the hard water requires either a water softener
or a new well into an aquifer that doesn't have those problems. You
can find the price of water softeners online. The labor obviously
depends on how difficult it is to install it where it needs to go,
local labor rates, permits, etc.
