There is no way to tell you what the normal reading would be without knowing outdoor temp, indoor temp, liquid line temp, or superheat. There should be a charging chart on the inside cover of the outdoor unit.

Outdoor temp of 95degrees head pressure around 220-230 degrees. With the new higher seer units you cannot guess. You have a 13 seer unit. The newer units are charged by weight for a matching air handler and outdoor unit, plus length of the lineset. DH
