caroldelgado ph; plug it it to the 240 volt outlet & enjoy the cooling, the motor is cooled by the freon, it may run (speed) a little faster, cool more. perry

Also check the rated voltage 60Hz @ 110V ? or 60Hz @240V ?

thanks! but i'm afraid that the motor will be damaged because of the difference in frequency or that it may cause an electrical short circuit.
