Amana-Goodman 10716005 Burner Orifice
The Amana-Goodman 10716005 Burner Orifice is a critical metered component designed for natural gas furnace manifold assemblies. This precision-machined OEM replacement part replaces obsolete part number B4089345, ensuring the correct BTU input and gas-to-air ratio for efficient combustion. Proper orifice sizing is essential for maintaining flame stability and preventing incomplete combustion or soot buildup within the heat exchanger. As a direct-fit component, the 10716005 maintains strict tolerances required for Goodman furnace repair and Amana heating systems. Technicians should verify manifold pressure and clock the meter after installation to ensure the gas furnace burner operates within manufacturer specifications. This orifice is engineered for high-heat durability and corrosion resistance, ensuring a reliable furnace gas valve interface. When addressing HVAC gas conversions or replacing clogged orifices, utilizing genuine Amana replacement parts ensures system safety and long-term performance reliability in residential and light commercial applications.
Key Benefits:
- Precise Gas Metering: Ensures accurate BTU delivery for natural gas heating systems.
- Direct OEM Replacement: Replaces B4089345 with exact fitment for Goodman and Amana furnaces.
- Durability: Constructed from high-quality brass to withstand consistent thermal cycling without deformation.
- Optimized Combustion: Helps maintain AFUE efficiency ratings by providing a consistent fuel stream to the burner.
Common Questions:
What is the drill size for the 10716005 burner orifice?
The 10716005 is a standard natural gas orifice. Technicians should consult the specific furnace rating plate and altitude adjustment tables to confirm the exact drill size required for the local BTU content of the gas.
Can I use this orifice for a propane (LP) conversion?
No, this part is specifically for natural gas applications. Converting to LP requires a specific LP conversion kit with different orifice sizing and regulator springs.
Why should I replace the orifice instead of cleaning it?
Using physical tools to clean a clogged burner orifice can enlarge the opening or create burrs, leading to over-firing or poor flame patterns. Installing a new 10716005 ensures factory-spec gas flow.
