[QUOTE="Catt57, post: 3691611, member: 34578"] Ran into this doing one last night. They had completely covered the box, ran some 14 gauge wire jumpers over to the joist and had attached the fan with 2 Sheetrock screws.. The thing is, the original box was already on a ceiling fan brace like this: [ATTACH type="full" alt="1639587417994.png"]240259[/ATTACH] /facepalm.
