Easy AC Replacement for Duo Therm RV AC Unit

Question

Question:

I have a Duo-Therm AC model#59516.501 with Relay kit#3104998. installed on a 1997 Alpine light 5th wheel. I am looking for a replacement AC thats compatible without having to modify the structure. The mounting bolt spread is 13-1/4 center to center all directions. Can you recommend a model that you carry that will fit. Thanks

The Advent AC unit part # ACDOM150 will work great as a replacement for a Dometic Duo Therm unit like you have. We had a customer come back and tell us how well this worked as a replacement for a Duo Therm and that no modifications were needed so this would be what we would recommend highly.
