Starting a nomenclatur group on a new page using nomencl

Question

I have two nomenclature groups. Is it possible to force one to start on a new page? I've also reduced the line spacing, but it'd be nice if I could keep the spaceing between the group name and the headers.

Here is my (very scrappy and pasted together from several sources in tex.stackechange) code

documentclass{article}
usepackage{nomencl, ragged2e, etoolbox, mathtools}
usepackage{xargs}

makenomenclature
DeclarePairedDelimiter{abs}{lvert}{rvert}
newcommand{units}[1]{makebox[4em]{#1hfill}ignorespaces}

newcommand{nomsubtitle}[1]{item[largebfseries #1]}
renewcommandnomgroup[1]{defnomtemp{csname nomstart#1endcsname}nomtemp}

newcommand{nomstartF}{nomsubtitle{Formelzeichen}%
item[bfseries Symbol]%
nomdescr{textbf{Description}}units{textbf{Unit}}}

newcommand{nomstartA}{nomsubtitle{Acronyms}%
item[bfseries Acronym]textbf{Description}}

renewcommand*{nompreamble}{markboth{nomname}{nomname}}

newcommand{nomdescr}[1]{parbox[t]{10cm}{RaggedRight #1}}

newcommand{nomtypeA}[3][]{nomenclature[A#1]{#2}{nomdescr{#3}}}
newcommand{nomwithunits}[4]{nomenclature[#1]{#2}%
{nomdescr{#3}units{#4}}} %neuer Befehl zum Gesamtergebnis der Symbole
newcommand{nomtypeF}[4][]{nomwithunits{F#1}{#2}{#3}{#4}}
setlength{nomitemsep}{-parsep}

nomtypeA{wirk}{wirkleistungsbezogen}
nomtypeF{a}{Jahr}{annum}

begin{document}

printnomenclature[6em]

end{document}

Edit: added minimal document

I was dealing with a similar issue, however, I went for a simple but hacking solution.
I just added a newpage in the definition of the last item of the first nom group:
nomenclature[A]{textbf{Acronym}}{Description newpage}
The result is, that a new page is inserted before the next group header.

In case anyone in interested, I added changed the nomstartf command to

newcommand{nomstartF}{newpagenomsubtitle{Formelzeichen}%
item[bfseries Symbol]%
nomdescr{textbf{Bezeichnung}}units{textbf{Einheit}}%
}

which forced a new page. Didn't figure out the spacing between title and headings though
