I purchased a thru-the-wall A/C unit that runs 115V to replace an out

convert the 230V outlet to 115V?
If I recall correctly, 220v ACs are more efficient than 110. CAn you
return the one you have and get one that works on 220/30/40.
(Doug, I live in the 110/220 world and don't plan to move until I
reach the Next World.)
IIRC, if you calculate the actual rms voltage, a "110" or "120" volt
line is actually 117v. Of course this is nominal, since it excludes
noise and IR drops.
So, yer both right.
