It very much sounds as if you're losing your refrigerant gas.

Who is working on your system Hector? To recharge the system properly any "old" refrigerant must be evacuated first. Do not buy a home recharging kit. The correct charge is determined by weight which those kits cannot achieve so you can end up with too little or too much pressure. They also don't allow for the addition of the lubricating oil.
