The voltage for the air compressor is needs to come from a double (two) pole breaker. The size of the breaker needs to be 250% of the full load amps of the compressor. The wire size to the compressor has to be 125% of the full load amps of the compressor.
Your electric bill is computed in kilowatt-hours. This is a measure of power over a period of time, which is a combination of volts and amps. Amperage at 240v would be half that of 120v, but obviously the voltage is double. So the net watts are the same. As a result, your net kilowatt-hours will be the same whether you use 120v or 240v.
Yes. They're essentially the same as 110-115-120 are the same. The power that comes into your house is 240V, but by the time it's transferred through wires and breakers and outlets, it drops to about 220-230V. So anything between 220-230-and-240 is the same thing.

If it jumps from 14 amps to 19 amps that could simply be your air conditioner compressor cycling off and on. Even if you don't use the air conditioner, in some vehicles the compressor cycles. If, one the other hand, you are really looking at a volt meter, then 19 volts is bad, and could indicate a loose connection or bad regulator.
Borrow a clamp on amp meter and check full load amps. If pulling full load amps then compressor condemned.
Yes, there are some websites such as this: http://www.12volt-travel.com/12-volt-15-quart-slow-cooker-p-5926.html how to heat a potato with a 12 volt air compressor.
Yes, you can use a 230 volt device on a 240 volt supply.
You would have to install a 230 volt outlet.
your condensor is clogged up, or your condensor fanmotor is not working, or your compressor struckup due mechanical problem inside of your compressor.

No, the RPMs of the motor will be wrong and the compressor will be damaged.
The purpose of an air compressor is to air up tires. This can be bike tires but also car tires. Because it is a small model, it takes some time to fill a car tire, but it works.
