Id do it for a case of beer...

Its so easy to fix to..

you open it up.. somewhere on the unit (like all units that use freeon gas by law) it will indicate the type of gas it uses and how much it needs to have in liquid fourm ( High side psi)
the tricky part is your going to need to get a "shrader valve" and solder that on somewhere between the compressor and condenser (assuming that it doesn't have a service valve) (most units do not... that don't want you fixing it for 5$ when they can charge hundreds)
add you 2-5lbs of gas and run it... The problem is more less where the leak is.... finding that... and repairing that

just take a search around on you tube for fridge repair and ac unit recharge... Its almost the same as doing your ac in your car... but the gases are different (even though most of the time the same gas as your car will work for your fidge)

thats more about coding for use indoors in confined spaces bla bla bla osha.... bla bla bla
