Be surprised if he says "compressor" but ya never know. Central systems have service ports where a tech can attach gauges, but "room" units, home fridges, etc. do not. They're sealed upon assembly with a "lifetime charge." Which is about true. Barring damage or rust/corrosion, there's little chance for the charge to get away. There are "Saddle Valves" sometimes called "Bullet Valves" but experience usually show they create leak points.
Commendable you want to quiet that A/C even though it may be working.
