I took off the main body however there doesn't seem to be a nut inside the impeller onto the shaft
to put a socket wrench on.

Right now the house is wired with a 220 plug.

A shipment of 1HP Dual voltage Pentax pumps came in recently (model - CAM 100).
You will be able to get them at Rotoplastics directly. I'm not sure if the hardwares have them as yet.

make sure its not one of those small peripheral pumps that the hardwares like to sell as a domestic pump.

What's the problem with those?

Those pumps can't produce the volume of water needed to supply anything more than one outlet. The moment you turn on a second tap the volume of water drops drastically. They are really built for small volume water transfer.
The reason the hardwares sell it is due to the relatively cheaper price.
