Hey, new to pellet stove. I can do a super clean install with or without a clean out on the inside. 45 off the back of the stove 3' to the wall. Boom. If i do it that way, which is what I bought, then putting a clean out in later is going to be a problem. So am I good without it or should I get a clean out. Thanks for the input in advance
 
Get it, otherwise you will have to disconnect the pipe from the stove to clean it or rely on the leaf blower trick.

What stove did you get? Most stoves you can clean the exhaust through the blower which needs cleaned as often as the exhaust anyway. I serviced 4 stoves today and didn’t have to disconnect the pipe on any of them.
