Features
- Intelligent Oil Boiler Control
- Burnham's IQ system consists of two primary components: an IQ Option Panel and an Intelligent Oil Boiler Control. The Intelligent Control has an adjustable setpoint, provides two relays, and acts as an aquastat.
- IQ Option Panel
- The IQ Option Panel provides a standardized and simplified way to add functionality to your boiler. It supports Burnham's plug-and-play IQ Option Cards for outdoor reset, an auxiliary high limit, and low water cutoff.
- Superior Accessibility
- The MPO-IQ231-TB is designed for ease of installation and maintenance. The burner door is reversible and the rear plates may be removed easily for access to the flue passages.
- Simple Venting
- MPO-IQ boilers include a barometric draft regulator and stainless steel flue baffles. These components provide simple, safe, and efficient natural draft venting for your boiler.
- Durable Construction
- The longevity of MPO-IQ boilers is owed, in part, to the proprietary BC25HSi silicon-inoculated iron used for the boiler sections. Additionally, the heat exchanger is made from cast-iron, which allows it to accept lower return water temperatures.

Burnham is devoted to pushing the limits of heating technology and efficiency. Their ingenuity is responsible for some of the most efficient boilers on the market today. The MPO-IQ is a brilliant marriage of reliable design elements and advanced controls. The result is an incredibly efficient boiler that is easy to use. A 3" thick insulated jacket and vacuum-formed burner door provide the MPO-IQ231-TB with superior heat retention, one of several ways that an MPO-IQ hot water boiler reduces your energy consumption without compromising your comfort. In addition to superior insulation, MPO-IQ boilers also improve efficiency by virtue of their three-pass heat exchanger, which recirculates heat instead of venting it away. Whether you are replacing an existing oil boiler or this is your first, the MPO-IQ is a fantastic choice.

Medium
Medium
Medium refers to the substance that carries heat through the heating system. Systems are either designed to use either Hot Water or Steam as a medium, and components are usually specific to one or the other.
Hot Water
Heat Exchanger Material
Cast Iron
Fuel Type
Fuel Type
To create heat, some form of fuel is required. Fuel Type specifies what the product uses as an input to create heat.
Oil
Combustion Type
Combustion Type
Condensing appliances use leftover thermal energy from combustion gases to heat water in a secondary heat exchanger, resulting in higher efficiency and lower exhaust temperature.
Conventional
Vent Type
Vent Type
Products that use combustion (burning) of fuel to create heat also create potentially dangerous gasses that need to be exhausted (AKA "Vented"). Depending on the product, venting can be done via a chimney, through a side wall, or use a second vent to provide fresh air to the appliance.
Chimney Vent
DHW Production
DHW Production
DHW (Domestic Hot Water) is potable water for uses other than space heat. Some boilers are able to provide DHW "out of the box", while others can do so with the purchase of optional accessories.

Modulating/Staging
Modulating/Staging
Stages are unique speeds or levels that equipment can operate at. More stages allow for better fine-tuned control of output, which improves comfort and efficiency. Modulating equipment can operate across a range of levels, giving the highest level of fine-tuned control. Learn More

AFUE
AFUE
AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) measures the efficiency of combustion equipment over the entire heating season, and is calculated by dividing the amount of energy that is actually heating your home by the total energy contained in the fuel used by the boiler/furnace. Learn More

Net I=B=R Capacity
I=B=R, also referred to as Net Output or AHRI Capacity, is the rated heat output of a boiler after accounting for combustion efficiency, piping loss, and an extra pickup factor. We recommend sizing steam boilers based on the I=B=R rating.
