I am preparing to install my new above ground metal pool. It is 21' round and 10,500 gallons, with a vinyl liner. I am contemplating using my well to fill the pool. I have tested the well water after running through an ECO ONE hose filter with my Taylor 2006 test kit. Results: FC - 0, PH - 7, TA - 250, CH - 150. Should I go ahead and use the well water to fill the pool?

The water chemistry from your well looks fine for a pool.

How do you test for iron? I know our house has some pretty serious water softening equipment for the well water.

Take the water to the pool store for a metals test.
I assumed your ECO ONE hose filter filtered out iron.
