Standard is for US buildings to be supplied with 240v center-tapped (single-family), 208Y120 3-phase (light commercial/multifamily), or 480Y277 3-phase (large commercial, light industrial).
120V is never supplied on its own.

Most 240V appliances work fine down to around 200V since they’ll often be used with nominal 208Y120 power after voltage drop.
Are you sure you have 240/120V split phase service and not 2 legs of 208Y120?
If so, I’d contact an electrician or the utility company - sounds like the problem is upstream

Same crowd as last time is already trying to discourage and divide the left. Like it’s their job or something.
Doesn’t the US have far more standing forests than china though?

I think the Republican majority in Congress shoulder more blame
This guy has ideals! He will smugly do nothing!
Spouting, got ya. 7mo old account, 15,000 posts and comments - named in reference to “evil robots” and “bait” 🤔
isn’t quokk.au the all anti-US instance?
They’re likely right.
Midterms are going to hit the Republicans hard, they barely have a majority as it stands.
A++++++++++++++!
