Hey Paul, Advent Air AC units like the part # ACDOM135 that you referenced are really great options that aren't known to be problematic and are priced really great. We've been selling them for at least 5 years I would say and we don't hear about any common issues at all. They might be a little louder than other brands like Furrion or maybe they don't blow quite as cold but for the money they are really solid options.

Thanks for the remarks, I ordered one, it is on the way. I may need to rent a hand crank heavy materiel fork lift to get it on the roof, otherwise looks pretty straight forward.

@PaulL It does weigh 75 lbs so that would be a little challenging to get up there by yourself. We are lucky enough to have forklifts around here so that's what we use to get them on the roof. Some places to rent lifts like we have heard Home Depot does...or at least they did. I have read that some people will wrap the unit in a blanket and then tie a long rope around the unit and then pull it up to the roof of the RV.
