I think our wells are similar. Mine is a 200" deep flow well too. I have it tested every once in a while and it comes back good, but even so, I get a smell. Not an unpleasant smell, but a smell just the same. The well man showed me how to correct that. My well is 100" from the house. Where the pipe 90s over to start to the house, I put a tee with a pipe extending up in the air about 4" with a valve on top. I turn the pump off and drain the water and pressure. I then pour a gallon of bleach in the pipe, close the valve, turn on the pump, go inside and open all the faucets one at a time until I smell a hint of bleach, close the faucets, wait 4 hours, turn on all the faucets a little for 30 minutes, and the water is as pure as rain. No more smell for a year or two.
