The Goodman 10716003 Natural Gas Burner Orifice is a genuine OEM spud designed for the Goodman GMT070-3A gas furnace/package unit. This precision-drilled brass orifice meters the exact volume of natural gas into each burner for proper flame characteristics, clean combustion, and rated heating output. A clogged, corroded, or incorrectly sized orifice causes poor ignition, sooting, or an unsafe flame.
Orifice bore diameter directly controls the BTU input of the furnace. The OEM 10716003 is drilled to Goodman's exact specification for the GMT070-3A, ensuring correct gas flow and safe combustion. A generic or wrong-drill-size orifice can over- or under-fire the unit, risking carbon monoxide production or a tripped high-limit. Always match OEM for gas-fired components.
Difficulty: Advanced (licensed gas technician recommended). Shut off the gas supply and power, remove the burner assembly, and thread out the old orifice. Install the new spud, reassemble, and — critically — leak-check all connections and verify the manifold gas pressure and flame after startup. Gas work should be performed by a qualified professional.
