Which Furrion 15,500 BTU system will plug right into a 2017-Dometic Brisk 15,000 BTU system (replacing just the rooftop self contained system)... and if I want to remove everything and replace it with the complete Furrion system, what is the complete package number (white color and premium package) ? Thanks...

For just a replacement AC unit to replace your existing Dometic model (while maintaining everything else on your current setup) you'll use the Furrion # FR42PV. For a complete system you will need part # F15SA12SASA-W.
