The Goodman 10716005 Natural Gas Burner Orifice is a genuine OEM spud that meters the precise volume of natural gas delivered to each burner on the ACEC961005CNAB gas furnace. Correct orifice sizing is critical — it sets the furnace's BTU input, flame quality, and combustion efficiency. A worn, clogged, or incorrectly sized orifice can cause delayed ignition, sooting, or nuisance lockouts.
The genuine 10716005 is precision-drilled and calibrated to Goodman's published manifold pressure, ensuring the rated BTU input and a stable blue flame. Generic or re-drilled orifices risk over- or under-firing the furnace, which wastes fuel and can create unsafe combustion. Always replace gas orifices with the OEM part.
Rating: Moderate (3/5). Requires removing the burner assembly and threading the orifice into the manifold with a properly sized wrench. Gas work should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician; verify manifold pressure and check for leaks after installation. Shut off gas and power before servicing.
