If the refrigerant's low, it's LEAKING.

A licensed pro can't legally top off a refrigeration system with a
known leak. If the EPA gets wind of it he'd face fines and would
probably lose his license.

They do call HVAC service guys to come out to a house to see if they will do
things like that. OTOH, you can always take a couple of wrenches to a
fitting, snug it up and swear it was leaking.
