Private consumer with industrial usage

I spend £2400 per annum on gas in a six bedroom house with a gas fired aga cooker. I have been told that I am on industrial usage levels and as such I used to get a reduction to reflect this. Apparently last September this facility was scrapped for residential customers. None of the internet sites accept this level of consumption on the cost comparison options. I am currently with Powergen. What can I do to get some cost comparisons?

    Just a thought but with such high usage why not phone round the suppliers in your area and tell them what you use and see what the best deal is you can get.

    £46 per week?! Is it running correctly? Are they always that expensive?

    That's a lot of gas.

    Are you a lepidopterist ?

    If not, get an energy consultant in.

    likely recommendations Meter check, heat loss survey, boiler efficiency check.

    likely suggestions new boiler, new insulation, new radiator controls.

    Likely savings 30-40%.
    Just for one moment, thought I'd found my way.
