Hey Jen, thanks for reaching out!
The AC world has been shifting a bit this past year because of a new regulation that says all ACs from here on out need to use R32 refrigerant. Because of this, a lot of the older AC units have become obsolete.
The Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner # ADV89FR will still work with an older Dometic unit that uses the 6-Pin connector, and it can be paired with the Start Capacitor # ACMSCKIT for a more efficient start up.
If you'd like to get a jump start with the new refrigerant, then we have the upgraded Low Profile Advent both in Black # ADV52SR and White # ADV65SR. These come with whole new kits (including a thermostat and distribution box) because the R32 models are all new and won't be backwards compatible.
One note I will put in here just to be mindful of; we've had some feedback that not all of the 6-Pin connectors are a direct plug and play match so you may end up needing to have a service tech come out and mess with the wiring if the # ADV89FR doesn't start up right away.
Hopefully this all makes sense - let me know if you have any other questions!
