Natural gas competition is on fire in Western Australia, as a handful of suppliers battle to be the cheapest with some huge discounts frequently on offer. In fact, WA is known for having some of the country’s biggest gas discounts, which is great for customers chasing a better deal. And considering that discounts are applied to pretty much the same rates across the board (thanks to the regulated price cap), it’s easy to find the best deal.

Considering customers in the west don’t get to choose their electricity provider, Western Australians can at least pick their natural gas supplier. That’s why we’re comparing AGL and Kleenheat based on plans, prices, as well as other incentives that add to their overall value. As these two gas suppliers go toe-to-toe, you’ll be able to see which offers a product best-suited to your personal circumstances.

  • Large retailer offering big discounts off gas usage and supply charges
  • Access to AGL Rewards – a program packed with benefits and discounts to over 55 participating brands nationally

About Kleenheat

Kleenheat is part of the Westfarmers Group, which includes retail brands like Bunnings, Kmart, Target and Officeworks. This gas supplier is notorious for headlining big conditional discounts, as well as having no exit fees or lock-in contracts. Below are some key features of Kleenheat:

  • Customer service and support based locally in WA

Should I sign up to AGL or Kleenheat?

With plenty of experience in the retail gas market in WA, AGL and Kleenheat are both reasonable choices. If discounts sway your decision, then these two companies deliver, but just make sure you fulfil each condition that entitles you to a percentage off your next gas bill. Otherwise you could be paying more for gas than you need to. It’s important to reiterate that AGL and Kleenheat are not your only options, which is where our gas comparison tool can help.
