With no ceiling assembly on your 2017 Forest River Rockwood Signature Ultra Lite Travel Trailer RV, it sounds like you might have a ducted system.

The Advent AC unit part # ACDOM150 that you referenced will work great as a replacement for a Dometic Duo Therm unit that you have and can actually be used as a ducted or non-ducted unit since this is just the vent assembly. The ceiling assembly, which is not included, is really what determines a ducted or non-ducted setup. If you had a ceiling assembly it would be a non-ducted setup.

The Advent Air RV Air Conditioner w/ Air Distribution Box and Start Capacitor # ACM150C is for non-ducted applications and includes a ceiling assembly air and has a built-in thermostat, making it extremely easy to use.

I have added some links to help you with your decision.
