The Goodman 10716005 Natural Gas Orifice is a genuine OEM burner spud for the Amana/Goodman AMEC961205DNAC gas furnace. The orifice meters the precise flow of natural gas into each burner, setting the furnace's BTU input and ensuring clean, efficient combustion. Because it is a drilled, size-specific part, using the exact OEM orifice is critical — an incorrect bore can cause over-firing, sooting, or a failed flame, all of which are safety concerns.
Gas orifices are precision-drilled to a specific diameter for a rated BTU input. Generic or mismatched spuds can deliver the wrong gas flow, risking incomplete combustion and carbon monoxide. This genuine OEM orifice guarantees the factory bore size for safe, efficient operation.
Moderate — requires removing the burner assembly and a proper-fitting wrench; correct torque and a leak check are essential. Shut off gas and power before servicing. A licensed HVAC technician is recommended for any gas-carrying component. Typical install time is 20–30 minutes.
