The Advent Air Replacement RV Air Conditioner for Dometic Setup w/ Start Capacitor # ACDOM135 is going to fit the same size hole as your Dometic rooftop unit and comes with a wiring harness adapter to make installation with your Dometic system plug-and-play.

The start capacitor included with the Advent Air Replacement RV Air Conditioner for Dometic Setup w/ Start Capacitor - 13,500 Btu # ACDOM135 stores energy to make the startup of your AC unit easier. If you're at a campsite where everyone else has their AC's kicking on at the same time you won't actually be receiving full power from the shore power pedestal. This can put a strain on the unit to power up and cause it to prematurely fail. The wiring harness adapter included in this kit will allow you to plug right back into your old wiring so that you can still use your Dometic thermostat.

Bought a acdom135, mounting bolts were not in shipment. Question. Where is the thermostat wire? Wireless from the relay has two black wires, not sure of the correct terminal for them . One has had a little hook on it , I assumed it went to the hot? The other to the white . Thank you for any help you can give

@DaveR The # ACDOM135 is just a replacement unit that would reuse the old mounting bolts from the previous unit. This is only going to have a 6-pin wire harness that hangs out from the bottom of the unit that you'd plug into the controller for your old system and would not have a separate thermostat wire.
