220 to 110 adapter

120 is already there. You can just replace the outlet if you know how. Use a 240 to 120 adapter like this one if you don't.

Could just replace the receptacle and breaker and use the wire.

This is the easiest way.

The breaker is likely sized too large to protect any 120V load. Do not just replace the receptacle or use an adapter if the breaker is bigger than 20A. If you do go the route of changing the receptacle and breaker, confirm the wire size isn’t too large for what the the receptacle terminals are listed for.

110x2 is 220 you have 3-4 legs on that 220 actually 240 it’s basically 2 120 legs but on 1 breaker. Just call a electrician and run the proper wire & breaker. You could do it it’s fairly simple but if you are not comfortable DO NOT do it.

Just put a dryer cord on the refrigerator and plug it up. It will make ice twice as fast

It’s probably 10/2 and he wouldn’t need new wire.

OP, it’s really simple unless you’re not handy.

Kill whole house power at your main disconnect and check multiple appliances in the house. Remove two pole breaker in panel and designate the black to be the positive on both panel side and recep side. Mark with tape if it helps you remember. Take the red (white if 10/3) and mark that neutral on both sides and then connect it to the neutral bar in panel and the neutral at recep. If it is 10/3 wire, put a wire nut on the red on each end tuck it away neatly. Next, find the bare copper line in the panel and make sure it’s connected to ground bar. Some may have it in the neutral bar. That bare ground the connects to the green screw at the recep.

When in doubt call a professional, but YouTube should have plenty of videos to clear anything up.
