Is your pellet stove your only source of heat? Do you turn it down at night? If your pellet stove pipe going out of the house has some rise to it, for the most part it still has some ability to get the smoke out due to chimney effect. If your pipe is just sticking straight out of your wall , you might want to extend the pipe up on the outside of the house to encourage more draft.
you can use a battery back up (like the kind for a computer) - they have an alarm on them and will beep while in battery mode, so that might be able to wake you up in the night to alert you that the power went out.
If the power does go out enough at your place; i would highly suggest adding a generator plus transfer switch. I have one. it is not automatic and i would have to hook up the generator to the house, flip the transfer switch etc. but i made sure the outlet my stove uses is also one of the covered circuits.
​
Example Transfer Switch Kit - this is the one i used. Very happy with it. They do have other options. I have a well pump that needs 240. Just about everything in my home is covered except for the AC (i have a separate boiler for heat and hot water that is covered) and i have a sub panel for an addition on my house. If i need power for the addition i can run an extension cord.

Personally, i dont run my stove when i am sleeping or not home. I have hydronic heat for the house, the stove is to help keep the uninsulated part of the house warm. But i understand your concern and needs if it is your only heat.
I just got this one (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076PBJBQP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_DkeWDbFBRPP2P) off of Amazon and I'm happy with it so far. Much more powerful than my Craftsman one that couldn't even suck up a loose pellet.
While doing my research on a new vac I heard that you either go cheap ($50-$100) or very expensive ($400-$600) and the Bacoeng had the fewest bad reviews. Lol.
Thanks for the reply, I didn’t even think about cleaning it out even tho that’s what I just did.
I currently don’t have a topper plate so I’ll be getting on, but I think I’m also going to get something like this and fill the cavity around the pipe
