Freon is typically added to the low-pressure side of an air conditioning system. This is because the low-pressure side is where the refrigerant is in a gaseous state, allowing it to absorb heat effectively. Adding refrigerant to the high-pressure side can lead to overcharging and potential damage to the system. Always consult the manufacturer's guidelines for specific instructions on your system.
