While we have a similar option for you, the Advent Air RV Air Conditioner w/ Air Distribution Box, Start Capacitor, and Heat Strip - 15,000 Btu # ACM150CH is not compatible with a ducted system because its air distribution box doesn't have registers that close to move the air through your ducts.
The option that will work that I recommend instead is an air conditioner from Furrion, which doesn't come with the heat strip but is something you can add:
- Furrion Chill RV Air Conditioner # FR92PR
- Furrion Heat Strip Add-On for Furrion Air Conditioner # FR35SR
The Furrion Chill AC is compatible with ducted systems as its air distribution box has registers which can be closed, diverting the air through your ducts. Like the Advent you asked about, it also has a start capacitor for boosting the power on start-up, and the heat strip to keep you warm on chilly nights.
