This small brass component threads into the manifold and precisely meters the volume of natural gas delivered to each burner. Its drill size is factory-calibrated to hold the furnace at its rated BTU input, ensuring a clean, stable blue flame, complete combustion, and safe, efficient heating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural gas (NG)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Meters gas flow to burner for rated BTU input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Machined brass with precision-drilled port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard Goodman manifold thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e Goodman VCES960804CNAA and matching NG furnace manifolds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs. Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e The OEM 10716005 arrives drilled to Goodman's exact specification for this model, so BTU input and flame characteristics match the equipment as manufactured. A generic equivalent is available at a lower cost; if you choose it, confirm the stamped orifice number\/drill size is identical, because even one drill size off will alter the firing rate and combustion quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstall difficulty: Easy (2\/5).\u003c\/strong\u003e Turn off the gas and power, remove the burner assembly or manifold as needed, and unthread the old orifice with a properly sized nut driver or socket — avoid pliers, which round the flats. Thread in the new spud snugly without overtightening. After installation, verify manifold pressure and inspect the flame for a crisp blue cone. If you are not comfortable working on gas-carrying components, have a licensed HVAC technician perform the swap.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Goodman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63058201248115,"sku":"GOODMAN-13436","price":7.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/nationalhvacparts.com\/products\/oem-goodman-natural-gas-burner-orifice-for-vces960804cnaa-10716005","provider":"National HVAC Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
