A commercial gas meter installation for your company from Total BGS Energy will soon see you reaping the rewards of more accurate reporting of your energy usage.
Providing more accurate business gas usage
With a gas meter installation, you’ll never need to send estimates or head off to some dark corner of the building to find the information, and there won’t be any more inaccurate bills to dispute with your provider. A new gas meter installation for your business’s needs will give you clear and totally accurate information about your gas usage you can provide your supplier with.
Understanding and awareness of gas energy consumption
Having an understanding and awareness of your business’s gas consumption, via your new gas meter installation, will empower you to make sure you are being charged fairly and you are making the most economical use of your resources. If any area of the business is wasting gas energy in any of its processes, a business gas meter installation will pinpoint it and, with help from our expert team at Total BGS Energy and the super competitive tariffs we can supply you with, it won’t be long until you’re saving money in new ways.

Business gas meter installation process
The Total BGS Energy team can tailor our services to your needs, delivering fast results, within your budget.
Initial consultation
During this first step, we get to know your business, as well as find out your gas supply numbers. These are the unique numbers, also known as the Meter Point Reference Number (MPRN) that are on your latest gas bill. This helps us to determine what type of gas meter to install. We will also book a date for the groundwork and installation to take place that works for you, where available.
Groundworks
We ensure the correct groundwork takes place to provide you with a safe connection to the gas main . We hire our trusted contractors, leaving you without the worry of finding the people for the job. We also organise all protocols that need to be adhered to with the right energy bodies.
Installation
Our accredited engineers will take care of the whole installation process. We connect your building to the gas main in a safe and efficient manner. As gas meter installations require expert knowledge and deal with highly flammable materials, you can trust Total BGS Energy to perform this step correctly.
Safety checks
Once installed, we perform all necessary safety checks to ensure everything is secure. Every part of the gas meter installation is rigorously checked before we hand your new gas meter over to you. Our installation process is the same for all businesses, no matter the size. Small and large businesses can rely on us to treat them with the identical level of care and dedication for a new gas meter installation.
Types of business gas meters
There are several types of gas meters available. Each one is designed to meet the specific energy demands of all types of business. Total BGS Energy can match your business, whether you’re an industrial-scale company or an SME, to the right type of business gas meter.
Diaphragm meters
The majority of diaphragm meters are found in modest commercial buildings. They work by filling and emptying a succession of diaphragms, which measure the amount of gas flowing through the meter. They are suitable for businesses with a moderate need for gas.
Rotary meters
Typically, medium-sized businesses utilise rotary meters. In comparison to diaphragm meters, they are more precise at greater flow rates and measure the amount of gas using two rotors.
Turbine meters
For large commercial and industrial properties, turbine meters are employed. For these applications, they are more precise and made to tolerate much higher flow rates. A rotating turbine is used to gauge the gas flow rate.
Orifice meters
Typically, very large industrial applications use orifice meters. These gas meters gauge the pressure decrease over an orifice plate that has been inserted into the gas stream. This type is generally not used for smaller commercial businesses due to its complexity and cost.
Ultrasonic meters
The velocity of the gas flowing through the pipe is measured by meters using ultrasonic waves. These are often utilised in large industrial properties where precision is required and are extremely accurate.
Smart meters
Smart meters are becoming increasingly more popular for businesses. These meters eliminate the need for manual readings and improve billing accuracy by sending information about gas usage back to the energy provider digitally. They are available in sizes appropriate for small to large organisations.
The optimum type of meter for your business will depend on your particular requirements, such as the size of your building, its gas consumption and the degree of accuracy it needs. As proficient gas meter installers, Total BGS Energy is more than happy to provide detailed consultations with you on the best type of new gas meter that will work for you.

Yes. Companies registered in the UK can claim 20% VAT on their utility bills. However, it’s important to keep a record of your electricity usage to support your claim, in addition to issuing and keeping copies of valid VAT invoices.
A comparison site won’t take your company’s individual needs and goals into account. It will simply generate a list of generic rates available online. These rates are likely much higher than the tariffs you would pay via Total BGS Energy, as our industry contacts give us privileged access to electricity deals that don’t appear in a regular search.
What’s more, the support provided by Total BGS Energy is about so much more than simple energy procurement. We also manage your bills for you, producing regular reports and helping you to identify further opportunities for savings.
