hmmm..... no attic. This was in the guest room downstairs... but there's no attic anyway. There was a fan already there, but it was installed badly.... they didn't mount it to the box like they should've.... but instead used 4 drywall screws outside the box.... bad idea... (which is why I was replacing it)

I mounted to the box. Fucker is steady as a rock.
