we have a 2001 double wide built by pine grove manuf.
in our dining room we took down the light fixture to hang a ceiling fan. we found that the current light wasn't really held on by anything.. the screws holding in the box (containing all the wires) weren't really screwed in to anything. so needless to say, we didn't hang the fan yet...
upon further investigation, we couldn't find any studs or anything in the vicinity, we even purchase that special bar that you can slide in your ceiling opening...but that didn't hit any support bars, and if we just placed in in the ceiling, we were afraid that the ends would start to poke through the ceiling with the weigh of the fan..
I've read the other posts on fan installations here... but I couldn't really understand/make sense of it..
any ideas?
When I look at our other fans (that were installed when the home was built I assume) they are very sturdy, and curious how those were installed..
Thanks in advance!
