You probably still have some air in the system. We generally use vacuum to fill the system to avoid that. The best thing to try is to go through a couple complete drive cycles from full operating temp to total cool down and then check the level again when cold.

Did you remove any heater hoses for any reason?

Have you tried making sure the AC is off. It may run in defrost mode.
