The Goodman 10716003 Natural Gas Orifice is a genuine OEM precision-drilled burner spud for the Goodman GMV951155DXBA 96% AFUE variable-speed gas furnace and compatible GMV/GCV series models. The orifice meters the exact volume of natural gas delivered to each burner, so the drill size is critical to safe, efficient, correctly-BTU'd combustion.
A damaged, corroded, or debris-clogged orifice causes poor flame, delayed ignition, sooting, or reduced heat output. Using the wrong orifice size — or a propane spud on a natural-gas furnace — creates a serious safety hazard. Always match the OEM part number to your furnace's fuel type and rating plate.
OEM vs. Generic: The genuine 10716003 is drilled to Goodman's exact orifice diameter for the rated input, ensuring proper flame characteristics and gas-code compliance. Aftermarket spuds may be off-size, producing high CO, lifting flames, or lockouts. For combustion components, insist on OEM.
Installation difficulty: Moderate — requires removing the burner assembly and a wrench to swap the orifice. Best done by an experienced DIYer or HVAC technician, since gas connections must be leak-tested afterward. Shut off gas and power before servicing.
