The orifice meters the precise volume of natural gas delivered to each burner, setting the flame size and BTU input. A correctly sized, undamaged orifice is essential for clean, efficient combustion and safe operation — a worn, clogged, or wrong-size orifice can cause sooting, poor efficiency, or unsafe flame characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10716003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Natural gas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Burner gas-metering orifice \/ spud\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMachining:\u003c\/strong\u003e Precision factory-drilled bore\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e Goodman GMH950704CXAF and compatible furnaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs. Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e The OEM 10716003 is drilled to Goodman's exact orifice diameter for the model's rated BTU input and gas pressure. Generic orifices can have inconsistent bore sizes that throw off the fuel-air ratio, hurting efficiency and safety. For a combustion component, OEM precision matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstall difficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate — 3 out of 5. Requires a nut driver or wrench to remove the manifold spud and care not to cross-thread or over-tighten. Always shut off the gas supply and power. We strongly recommend a licensed HVAC technician verify manifold pressure and flame after replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Goodman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63058116641139,"sku":"GOODMAN-11287","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/nationalhvacparts.com\/products\/oem-goodman-natural-gas-orifice-for-gmh950704cxaf-10716003","provider":"National HVAC Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
