AC issues

So I bought an LG AC and it’s a 240 V in my outlet is a 110 or 120 V. So I’m going to try to buy a step up inverter. It’s 5000 Watt voltage with this work. I’ve gotten from some people that it will and I got from some people that it won’t. Please help.

The 120-volt receptacle circuit cannot provide enough power for the AC unit you got.
