The Goodman 10716005 Natural Gas Orifice is a genuine OEM burner spud engineered for the VCES960403BNAA gas furnace and compatible Goodman/Amana models. The orifice meters the exact volume of natural gas delivered to each burner, so a worn, corroded, or incorrectly sized spud can cause weak flames, delayed ignition, sooting, or a furnace lockout. Installing the factory-matched orifice restores the burner to its rated input and keeps combustion clean and efficient.
Generic orifices are often drilled to a nominal size that only approximates the manufacturer's spec. Because burner input is set at the factory for this exact drill diameter, an off-spec generic can over- or under-fire the burner and skew the whole gas manifold. This genuine Goodman OEM orifice is drilled to the original specification, guaranteeing correct BTU input and a stable blue flame without recalibration.
Easy (1/5). The orifice threads into the gas manifold and is replaced in minutes with a nut driver or socket. Always shut off gas and power before service, and verify flame quality after reassembly. If you are not comfortable working on the gas train, use a licensed HVAC technician.
