ABSTRACT:
A mounting assembly for supporting a ceiling fan from a ceiling includes a support beam located inwardly of the ceiling surface at least a distance t. An electrical box having a bottom wall is directly joined to and supported from said support beam. The box has side walls extending from the bottom wall through the ceiling substantially to the exposed ceiling surface and terminating in an open end. A rigid metal plate or disk member adapted for supporting and mounting a ceiling fan is positioned over the open end of the box. The disk member is of a size sufficient to have a peripheral portion extending radially beyond the side walls of the box; and, a plurality of mounting screws extend from the metal disk member through the interior of the box into connected engagement with the beam for supporting the disk member from the beam without reliance on the electrical box.
