I’m sure the house is served by only one phase but you need more than 15 amps so you must start at your breaker box and run a heavier cable to a new 30 or 50 amp outside outlet. If you take care of running the wire you will only have to pay the electrician for a couple of hookups. Electricians are usually generous with free advice for this kind of thing because they want it to go well and aren’t very keen on the unskilled parts of the work. If not, buy a simplified electrical code book or check the library for one and read the rules for running wires. You can use an outdoor outlet box mounted on the outside so only a hole through the wall between floor joists for the wire is needed.
