I got a longer hose and ran mine thru the window. One thing that I found to be very important is to be sure to shut the tank off and bleed your hose each time you shut down the torch. If I was taking a break I'd have to go out and shut off the tank and then come in and relight the torch to bleed the hose. If I didn't do it the hose would leak. I never did find a hose that could hold the pressure from the tank with the torch off. That I suspect, is why all the gas suppliers recommended a regulator, the torch itself doesn't need one, but the hoses probably do. I've since upgraded torches- and have the hothead only as a back up.
